I get really excited watching the Baby hit a new milestone. I was chomping at the bit for him to start on solids, crawl and walk.
It felt almost miraculous watching the Baby take his first wobbly steps. It seems so recently that he was just a mewling, helpless newborn who couldn’t even support his own head. And that warm, fuzzy wonderment fills me for about a minute…
Then I realize life just got a lot harder.
Life is much simpler when the baby can’t run away lol. At the same time they are so cute when taking those first few wobbly steps 🙂
Thanks for linking up to #AnythingGoes

Yes the walking is a blessing and a curse. Then they start reaching for stuff and you realize the knives can’t sit so close to the edge of the counter…good times ahead!

Hahah! I love your blog. I haven’t been around many kids, being the baby of the family. I have grown quite fond of your little one through your writings 😀

My little one has just started walking too so I totally feel your pain! It’s all worth it for the huge beaming smile on his face when he realises he can walk like a big boy though.

Yeah, the beam is cool. But I watched it turn into a look of devilment when he realized now he could go where he wanted to, not where I wanted him to.

Oh yeah, a whole lot harder. Wait till you need to start putting shoes on him or till he can talk and really say “ha ha, nope”! Enjoy 😉

🙂 We’re using Attipus shoes at the moment and he loves them because he thinks it’s the only way he can go outside. He’s kind of like the dog when I get the leash with those shoes 🙂

Hehe uh oh, wait till they start reaching everything and pulling it off the table. Not sure why I’m chuckling really. I have all this to come all over again.

Nightmare. I think I have to lift the babyproofing up another few inches. The wee pest has gone and grown again .
