Starting to walk

Naddie decided to just stand up and walk to her dada yesterday. She was exactly 14 months and she took off. She stood up without any help (did not even put her hands down) and walked over (about 5-6 steps) to dada who was playing with her. She totally enjoys this newfound ability and keeps trying and trying.
She is a late walker but she is an early talker. She can go on and on about things. She also picked up this new habit that when she is really explaining something or trying to get your attention she will use her index finger (Will calls it her dictator finger) and make a very serious face and will just go off. Just like adults do!
She is also becoming very affectionate with some of her stuffed animals or her Baby doll. She hugs them and kisses them and pets them on the back.
I also found that she understands funny things without having to go out of our way to make faces or funny sounds. We took a picture of her and it turned out pretty funny. When I showed her the enlarged picture on the computer she started laughing. Only at that one though.
She is a very independent freethinking little girl. She is definitely exploring boundaries and how far she can go. Well, with daddy not too far. However with mommy she pushes as far as she can go.
I have to say this does not surprise me. It has happened with Puma and I knew it would eventually happen with Naddie as well.
