Countdown to Walking



Let the countdown begin, this morning Ethan got up the nerve to start letting go of the furniture while he was cruising. He'd cruise along, pause, let go, and continue his couch cruising. He's also figured out not only how to make his walker go but how to steer it to where he wants to go. This boy wants to be mobile something fierce! I've seen him take one step last week but nothing since.

I think Grace will like having him steady on his feet since she's been wanting to dance with him for awhile now. Last week they danced their first dance together while the three of us were rocking out in the kitchen making dinner. I thought it was so sweet of her to want to dance with her brother. Almost makes up for her hitting/kicking/ramming/and otherwise harming her brother throughout the day. Almost.

He is so close isn't he? He'll be walking (and running and chasing and dancing) in no time at all.
