Kara decides to go for another two milestones in a day

Today, Kara learned how to go up a small flight of stairs unassisted (I was sitting on the second step to help her if she needed it).

Also, today's the first day that — for no reason in particular — she decided to forgo a nap altogether. She even made it to bedtime. Before this, she'd only ever accomplished a feat of stamina of this magnitude on the day of my birthday gathering, and she ended up crashing an hour before her usual bedtime.

I'm considerably less excited about the second development than I am about the first.
