Walking!!!

Well we finally have a big walker in the house! Ethan started taking about 5 steps a few weeks ago and he is definitely on the move now. He's been walking for about 2 weeks but was also still crawling at times. Just like Braden, he couldn't get going unless he pulled up on something and then took off. Now he's figured how to get up off the ground and put that cute little butt in the air and he's off! I think a beginning walker is the cutest thing ever! He has his hands out for balance and always looks like he has a load in his pants with his wide stance and waddle. It is too cute! It's funny how my big 'ole babies are such late walkers. Braden was just shy of 14 months and Ethan was just a smidge over 14 months. It's a lot of work to begin walking when you're the size of a two year old. :)

Pics from when he first started making it across the room. He was so proud of himself! Chris was pretty excited too. :)

way to go, ethan!!! you are right, beginning walkers are hilarious! and with your boys being so much taller, i bet it is more of a chore!

Wahoo, Ethan! I know what you mean about big boys being late walkers. Gabriel was the size of a two-year-old at a year old (30 lbs.) and didn't walk until he was 16 months old. I had no idea how good I had it! LOL
