He's officially walking!

So for those of you who don't know, we are currently on vacation at Lake Anna, VA. We're enjoying a lovely time relaxing, reading, boating and playing with Daniel and our nephew, David. Uncle Ryan is home from college and so that has been a wonderful blessing too.

Today Uncle Ryan has been very diligent with Daniel helping him walk around the house and practice his steps. He's been taking steps for some time now, but hasn't really started walking. I thought he would be a early walker as he has always been so active and curious about everthing. But time has passed and he hasn't really shown an interest in it. My theory has been that since he crawls so well, gets around so fast, and is pretty much able to get into anything he wants to, that he hasn't felt any urgency to walk. But with Uncle Ryan's help practicing he has become much more confident in his balance and today has been taking 10-15 steps in a row, and smiling and loving it. He gets this little look of concentration on his face that is so adorable!

So, I guess when we get home from vacation I will be baby proofing to a new level now. Everything will have to go up higher!
