Our baby is walking!

At 17 and 1/2 months he finally mustered up the courage....

I was actually beginning to worry. Of course, I am in no rush for him to grow up....

He is our baby after all....

But, I was ready to see him take his first steps...

He decided, before bedtime last eve, that he was just going to stand up and start struttin'....

Off he went...back and down the hallway...

Back and down again...

and again...

He would fall and get right back up....

Still wobbly on his feet...

Love his little toddle...

Today, he has decided he is going to walk on his knees again...

But, every now and then he gets back up on his little feet...

and toddles....

he jabbers with glee while he makes his way across the room...

he is so proud...

and so are we...
