Walking!

A few days after his first birthday, Alex took his first 3 unassisted steps - and spent the rest of the day walking between Grandpa & Grandma Himan and Uncle Sly Dog - lurching into their arms SO excited.

Shoes!

One of your favorite things for months has been to crawl over to the closet with the shoes, and pull shoes in and out of the mesh drawers.

Today you took one of Ben's sandals, looked at it, and were very clearly trying to put it on your feet. I took some baby sandals that are still too big for you, and put them on, and walked you around by the hands around the living room. You giggled and giggled and were so pleased!

For the past few weeks all you have wanted to do is practice walking around, holding mommy or daddy's two hands (or other friends who come over, you just grab them and lead them where you want to go).
