WALKING!!

Soo it all started a few weeks ago when Aaron decided to let go of whatever he was holding onto to stand by himself... Then in the past week or so he'd take a half step in between two things to hold onto... We tried to convince him he needed to be walking before we went to his cousins last weekend but he didn't listen:)... he has too much fun pushing different items around and walking behind them... the laundry basket, his little hippo, a basketball hoop, a car really anything he can stand behind and push. Today tho he decided to take a few more steps... While holding the remote control he saw his big red ball, and decided to walk to it. He took 4 steps to get to it and then plopped down. He wouldn't walk to me when I tried to get him to do it again but then he took 5 more steps... then grabbed my shoes and socks and took a few more... He is slowly taking a few more steps at a time... He is still wobbly and either cruises or crawls but it is progress and in the next few weeks I have a feeling he is gonna wear us out! We are excited for this new stage and a little worried about what he might get into. Ahh toddlerhood... hmm what happened to my little boy? He will be 13 months tomorrow and is soo big! I can't believe how fast the time has gone...
