The Boys....

First steps


It has happened!  At 16 months, Gunner too his first unassisted steps.  This has not occurred since, but on Friday, October 9, 2010, Gunner took two steps to Mommy and two steps to Daddy.  He does a lot of standing purposefully, squatting to standing, but not much of the walking stuff yet.

This of course has been on the back of my mind.  Wondering...when?  I say this for a few reasons, one due to mommyhood, we all compare our kids.  Greyson was walking by the time he hit 10 months.  Yes, 10 months.  And that was the first time I captured it on camera.  Doing what Gunner is now, he was 9 months.  Then the other reason, the prematurity and adjusting ages and all that.  I just wondered when.  Don't get me wrong....I have enjoyed every moment and never really wanted to push him thru any milestone (except the sleeping all night one).  But I was starting to get a little concerned, because they said at this 15 month check-up if he wasn't walking by his 18 month, we would get referred to EI.  So, I was starting to get nervous.

Now I am not nervous, but worried about keeping up with TWO BOYS.  Yikes.  They say you don't get what you can't handle...hope they are right.
