My little TODDLER! (:

Justin started walking a few days after his first birthday.
I wouldn't actually call it "walking" because he doesn't go very far, but my mom said as long as he is taking steps by himself, it counts.

Soooo................HE'S WALKING!
And we're LOVING it!



I know the videos are all pretty much the same, but I mostly put them on so my mom can see.
(He's not much for performing in front of the webcam.)

It's so fun to watch his expressions, you can almost read his mind. Right before he gets to the couch, or to me, or to Jason he stops and looks and thinks "i'm close enough" then just kind of lunges forward. -he's usually not close enough though.

I think his record is 7 steps before he fell...which doesn't seem like a lot but we get so excited and there is a lot of clapping going on in this house right now.

(and yes, I realize he probably could walk better if his pants weren't too long. We spend most of our practice time wearing JUST a diaper and a shirt) (:

We sure love this little boy!

ahh he's so cute!! Thats so exciting. If he was mine I would wear him out making him walk because I wanted to see it so bad! I'm sure he's loving all of the attention.

How exciting!! Braxten doesn't even show any interest in walking yet. He looks so cute when he walks though. He is going to fully walking so soon isn't that crazy!

Justin Rocks!!! We can't wait to see him in person at Christmas. You guys are such cute parents. He will love looking back at this in a few years and seeing himself learning to strut. - Trish
