Three times today, Zoey stood by herself for about 3 or 4 seconds. That is really good compared to the split seconds that she has been doing.  I think you can count this week as her first steps too.  She can really only take one, maybe two by herself, and it is mostly as she is falling, but we'll count it.  Maybe I'm wrong, but I would guess that is what they mean when they are talking about the first step.  Either way, she is going to be standing alone consistently pretty soon. and even walking.  She is really on the go.  Only 7 months old.  Go Zoey! Momma's so proud!
Just to update about the previous posts.. she is still sleeping in her crib, naps and nights.  She doesn't sleep well next to me anymore or while I am holding her.  she squirms a lot.  So, she really is there to stay. I'm not even thinking about turning back.  It is amazing that she can put herself back to sleep a lot of the times she wakes up.  The longest she has gone through the night without wanting to nurse is 6 hours and that is not often.  She usually wakes every 3-4 hours.  I am not in a hurry to spread the feedings out.  If they don't spread out on their own, then I we'll deal with it when it is unbarable, but for now, its fine. 
The army crawl is still the way she does it.  She is definitely strong enough to crawl normal, but doesn't.
She now has 2 teeth. Right next to each other.  They are not all the way in yet, but you can see them pretty clearly.
She actually goes to people pretty easily now.  She does get nervous if I am too far away and she can see me. But she has been letting other people hold her and play with her, which is more than we could say about her last month.
We don’t go out without her anymore.
