Allison's Strut

When Allison has free room to walk somewhere, she gets a little strut going, as if she is on a mission. "I Know Where I Am Going And Don't Get In My Way." She has been known to stop a crowd of people with her strut. I love walking behind her and watching people stop what they are doing in order to watch Allison as she struts on by them.

When we were on vacation in Lake Geneva, we were walking down the sidewalk. This was at the end of the week, so at that point Allison really knew her way around and was confident in where she was going. She was doing her little strut when I looked up and saw a young couple coming our way. If you saw the guy on the street, he would have been the last person that you would think to be amused by a two-year old. However, he was mimicking Allison in her walk, arm swinging along. He was cracking up at Allison and mentioned how cute she was.

We have tried to capture this walk on video, but every time we try to tape her, she mixes a little run with her strut. You can get a feel of her walk though on this video. She was just so excited to be at the zoo and out of her stroller that she couldn't contain herself.
