Oob, the Walking Edition

He's walking for real now.

He still walks delicately, hands outstretched, with a delicious smile that says, "Look, Mom, no hands!"

When I stretch out my arms to him he gives me a puckish grin and toddles in the opposite direction. "Look what I can do!"

He sees something across the room, wobbles over, seizes his prize and then giggles with delight! "I did it!"

At the Arboretum he walked more than he ever had before. He got tired and put his arms up to me with a worried look.

I picked him up and he snuggled against my neck. I was so very grateful to carry him back to the van, still my baby for just a little while.
