Here is a great video of Noa claiming her independence by going down the front steps all by herself. She is big on telling us to get lost – she doesn’t want us near enough to even touch her so she can do it alone. Of course as you can see, it’s a bit of a slow go, so we have to leave extra time for this kind of thing but it’s so great to see Noa so independent (with all kinds of “helpful” side coaching and cheer-leading from Mommy of course).
