Henry’s First Steps

Watch the video here!

He finally did it! Our little man has officially started to walk as of about 2 hours ago. So of course I had to mark down the momentous occasion…in his baby book, facebook, flickr, and now the blog. Oh how I love digital media.

Admittedly, I’ve been slightly stressed out about the fact that his first birthday came and went with no signs of walking in sight. I know, I know, all babies develop differently, they are all unique individuals, whatever. I still found myself saying “no, not yet, but he is really close” each of the bazilion times I was asked if he was walking yet. Does the crawling around on all fours look like walking to you, hmmm?

I digress. I am now officially the very proud mama of a toddler and I couldn’t be more excited! I’m sure it will take a little while to go from having “walked” to “walking”, but I have high hopes for Christmas morning. I can just picture him teetering his way from his room to the soon-to-be mountain of Christmas presents…sigh.

PERFECT timing little man, perfect. You truly are amazing.
