a walk on the wild side!

there's nothing like a baby's first steps! of course these are somewhat different. but then what would you expect from scooter?

he never really crawled. he got so good at scooting, he never bothered with it. likewise, he had little interest in walking, cause scooting was so fast. having other boys who walked rather early (harry before 8 months, and chilly around 9) this seemed really late, rather than normal. no matter how we reminded ourselves that many kids don't walk until 13-15 months, we still worried that something was wrong. silly us.

anyway, either during the little time he's spent outside, he realized that the scooting doesn't work so well on grass and concrete, or he gets a huge kick out of being such a big boy! either way, he has recently done a lot of walking, just usually holding on to something. lately, he has been taking a few steps from one place to another, but usually when no one was looking. tonight, we managed to keep him walking long enough to grab the camera.

enjoy!
