First Steps...

So as I was sifting through pictures and videos I had loaded on my computer, I came across footage of my son's first steps. Thought I would share this with the class.

My son Quinsley was 12 months when he took his first walking steps. Now he is running around and its hard to keep up with him!


Enjoy!




Incredible how it is such a feat for a child to take its first steps.

As an adult, a person trains other methods in mastering a walk; like tight rope walking.

When I was watching my favourite T.V show, Modern Family, They had incorporated this movie in the episode. The father Phil Dunphy decided to take on the challenge and learn to tight rope walk himself

Make it a workout...

Check out this video for better walking tips.

Do you think you walk properly?

After Jocelyn's presentation I decided to look up more tips on how to walk properly.

Walking in Stilettos

I decided to wear heels to campus, beacuse I was doing a final presentation for my Museum studies class. By the end of the day, the hike back to the car really put a toll on my feet. I use to be heel queen! I loved my heels, I put the blame on swollen feet after pregnancy, my feet will never be the same.
So I did some more research on how to walk in heels without the pain. I came across a humorous website (but quite informative)

Quoted from the website:

"Wearing high heels can make you stand so that your legs look slimmer, your stomach is flatter, and your femininityis unstoppable. It can also do wonders for your stride, but walking in high heels is not a natural talent--it's learned skill, perfected by practice and discipline."

So I guess i just have to suck up the pain and wear the heel because it looks too darn good with my outfit!
