Walking!

Our big boy is walking! He has been taking steps for a few weeks, but only a few at a time and always just from person to person. Within the last week he has been taking many more steps and often unprompted. He still doesn't have it perfected and prefers to crawl quite often, but he does have the ability to get anywhere he wants to go via his feet!

Milestones

I've said in the past that I am using this blog to keep track of things Jacob does, so this post is purely for that purpose. I will be listing his accomplishments up to this point and using the label feature I will label it "Milestones". Some things I post might be of no interest to anyone but me, but I will be including it in case I want it for later. Going forward, each time I write a post about something new Jacob is doing I will label it in the same way so that I can click "Milestones" and everything will be neatly organized and accessible! Now, I just have to keep my posts current.........wish me luck!
