Walking at Last (Most of the Time)

Right before we went home for the holidays Christian look his first steps (at 14, almost 15 months) so naturally we thought, "this is it!" but C had other plans. During our entire month stay in Colorado Christian would only take three or four steps on his own at a time (which were few and far between.) He would walk on his own if he was holding a finger or if you slightly had your hands on his back, but as soon as you would let go he would drop to his knees and continue "the knee walk." Well, it seems like he has gained quite a bit more confidence ever since we returned back to South Carolina. He now walks randomly without encouragement, and is very close to taking off!

HOORAY!!! It was fun to watch him do his thing on Skype yesterday! Maybe he is just a cautious little guy :)

I'm going to re-learn Skype so we can see Christian in action and you guys can see Shepherd when he comes home! Nice chatting with you last night :-)
