And He's Off!

Caleb started walking at 10 1/2 months almost to the day. After Carter turned 10 months, we kept joking that he had until Feb. 15th to figure out how to walk. He wasn't very close at all though. He loved to walk around holding our hands, and did pretty well at holding just one hand, but his balance wasn't as good as Caleb's.
He shocked us all on Feb. 15th when he took his first independent steps (5 of them). I was finishing up some dinner prep in the kitchen, and Matt was on the floor playing with Carter. We had my sister over for dinner that night who was also on the floor playing with her son. Carter was standing up holding onto Matt, and then he just took off walking to Ariane.

So he tied Caleb and has since done very well at walking further distances. I love the zombie arms as he walks. Now it's time to work off all that baby fat (and he has a lot of it!).

He is all smiles and giggles as he walks from one person to another.

Love this cute face!

He IS so super cute! That is crazy that they started walking at the exact same time. Tyler was 10 mo when he walked but Kylee was almost 14 mo I think. I can't believe he's almost one already!! How fun to have 2 such adorable boys!
