DB, Walking Machine



Drew finally started walking more than a few steps on December 17th. He was a few days shy of 16 months, so he was the latest walker of the three kids. I looked back in baby books: Erik started walking at 15 1/2 months and Lily started at 14 months. He still doesn't talk. He doesn't even say mom or dad. He does say mamamama and dadada.... they just don't mean mom and dad. He understands everything we say, he just doesn't say the words himself.
Anyway, we have video of Drew walking, but it hasn't been uploaded yet. I'll have Daniel help me tomorrow and get it on here. In just the 2 1/2 short weeks he's been walking, he's gotten really good. In fact, the past two or three days he really hasn't crawled much at all. He just decided he really likes this walkin business! :) Tonight he would "run" away from me, around the corner, stop and turn around, then come back into his room. He did this about 3 times before he wobbled and sat down for a few minutes. Then he was back walking up and down the hall. What a funny kid.
Stay tuned for the video of our newest walkin machine!


Touchdown!

Way to go! We have had 2 super late walkers in our home too! One walked at 18 months and another walked at 23 months!!! Yikes! I guess if they get around crawling then there is no need to learn something else right?
