Baby Steps
Great news! Wednesday, May 20th, Zander took his first steps!! Woo hoo! We had a physical therapist and early education specialist over and I wanted them to see him stand up on his own, something he just started doing last weekend. What a glorious suprise when he stood up then took 3 steps toward me!! I almost cried. Actually, i would have had the others not been here! That night Chris and I worked with him and he did so well taking litlle steps. We made it a game and got him to go from the couch to the ottoman and back. We busted out the video camara and got some good shots too. So exciting. I knew he would do it eventually, but boy, this gives me a huge boost of confidence. Him too, I think. He really likes being up and moving around, so hopefully he will just take off! I know, many of you are probably saying "watch what you ask for!" but hey, he is 21 months old (today!), its time. Plus, I cannot carry 2 babies anymore!! No pictures, but if I get the video software figured out I will post a little video. Happy Memorial day weekend!

That is wonderful! I know we always say be careful what you wish for, but we all want are kids to move forward and learn new things it's what we live for!
Yay!!! That's awesome!!! When are you due?
Congrats to all of you. What a proud parental moment...I understand wishing that it was just the 3 of you (no therapist included). I am so happy for your huge milestone. At least he wants to be a cooperative big brother!
Congrats again on Zander ...yes people to say its the begining of an end when they walk.....but it is nice when they can walk beside you and not have to hold them :) and no you right you dont want to carry 2 babies around..... he is just going to keep doing better and better! Good job Zander !!
