Hooray! I know how you feel - both of my daughters walked at just under 15 months too. I worried a bit with #1 - kept looking for possible reasons and remedies - but it's true, they know when they are ready!

What a sweetie!!!

Liana did not walk on her own until about 16 months. At 26 months, she runs, she climbs, she scares me silly. And I was worried before?

Congratulations Rachel.

Very exciting! My little guy didn't walk until he was 15 1/2 months old. How he's 20 months, and runs like crazy (and jumps and climbs and hops...) You're about to hit a very fun stage! I'm not being sarcastic; DH and I really enjoy this new mobile and verbal stage.
