Ruby is taking steps and falling down a lot

Ruby is going to walk so soon! Ruby has been able to stand on her own for a while now, but just this past week I've noticed her taking a lot more chances. She can't stand up from the floor, but she only needs something 5-6 inches high, and she can do the rest. She can stand for a very long time on her own, more than 30 seconds, and she can play with a toy while standing completely unsupported. Yesterday, at Grampa's house, Grampa called to her and she took about 5 steps towards him before crashing into his arms. She was so excited. She really seems motivated to learn how to walk. If you say to her, "Walk Ruby?" She smiles, babbles, and obliges.

She's climbing onto the couch and figuring out how to get down butt-first rather than head-first. She recognizes oranges and will wiggle when she sees one. She and Theo are starting to fight for toys. She is picky with her foods: she is not crazy about spinach and potatoes, but will always make space for peach banana oatmeal. In fact, for a while we could get her to eat the spinach and potatoes by alternating it with bites of fruit, but she caught on and now will only open her mouth a little bit until she has tasted what is on the spoon.
