He's Walking!


It started last week, from Tuesday really. He made the transition a little more each day. We put a gate up (finally) on the bottom of the stairs, which allowed me to un-confine him from just one room at a time. Once he could roam from room to room, he started walking to do it. I guess my strategy failed; I had hoped to keep him crawling, so he'd never move away from us. (Ha ha!)

Now, the place has been baby proofed for a while, and since we're in a new house without a lot of furniture, decor, drapes, we're really in good shape. Except for some drawers in the kitchen, particularly the aluminum foil & baggies & cookbook drawer. And the lazy susan...boy he enjoys that.

In this picture he's carrying his basketball over to the steps. Click on the image to get a larger view.

You'll never be ready for him to move on and leave you!! He looks so cute walking. Wish I could see him walk in person!

He doesn't look like he's walking...he looks as if he's RUNNING!
