Benjamin’s Walking Progress Report

Benjamin is making great strides in walking these days. He went from:

walking about 6-8 feet before falling (as of his birthday, Oct 6) …

to: walking around the room, picking up the phone hand set and putting it back on the base or walking around carrying something in one hand (by the end of his birthday week, Oct 9) …

to: walking out of rooms and into others (from the living room couch to the kitchen), making turns, walking over the gate, etc. in just a few more days (by Oct 11) …

 

to: walking all around carrying something in each hand and bending down to pick things up …

to: less than a week later (Oct 21) he was walking around carrying a cereal box with both hands (and looking more steady than when he has two separate things in each hand) …

to: two days later (Oct 23), he stood up from a seated position on the ground without pulling up on anything.  He can also walk over little steps in our garage.

There is no stopping him now!
