One Small Step for Trevor...

So Trevor took his first step this week, Wahoo!!! Every day he's been venturing out, getting that concentrated look on his face, letting go of the table/chair/hand he's been holding onto and talking little wobbly steps before plopping down on his fanny. I think the first official step I saw him take was 5 days ago, so last Wednesday. Today, I think was even more thrilling than that. I set him down to stand and after he balanced himself for a couple seconds he took a step, another step, then a third step, then woah..balance check..woah..okay then a fourth step, a quick fifth step before finally flopping down on his fanny. He was so proud of himself and I cheered right along with him. It's so fun to see him advance. He's such a little boy that it does not look like he ought to be walking, people are often surprised to see him crawling because he looks a few months younger than what he actually is. I know that this is the beginning of the end- he's been destructive enough on his hand and knees, I can only imagine the kind of chaos he'll create once he's stable upright. Ah well, as is life. I sure love my little boy.
