Walking Monkey

Here Gavin is walking. He is officially a walker. He has been walking everywhere. Now I will REALLY get the exercise I need chasing him around! Enjoy.

Finally

I think it is about time to finally officially say that Gavin is a little walking machine! He has been walking all over the place tonight, without any help or prodding. It will just randomally stand up in the middle of the room & start walking to where ever it is that he has set his sights on! He is still a little shaky & hit his head again on the couch, but hopefully he will move forward with this new sense of freedom & accomplishment! Only time will tell & I will keep you updated!

Funny Guy

This morning Gavin had woke up before I left for work. Mike & I were debating whether or not to go get him or see if he would fall asleep again. I went out to the living room to let Bear back in & Gavin yelled from his room, "Mom, Come." Silly kid!

For the last week or so, Gavin has been randomly standing up in the middle of the room. I can't help but think this is 1 more step closer to him walking. Maybe by August we will FINALLY have a walker! We will just have to see.

I have taken some really cute pictures lately that I will have to post when I get home. We didn't have internet last night to post the pictures, so hopefully when I get home tonight it will be back up! Until then...

Walking

Walking...For Rizzles this time! Today when I got home from work I walked into the living room to Gavin walking around the couch (with its help) to me. I stood away from the couch with enough room for him to walk to me but not enough to be so far away. He reached & reached for me but wouldn't let go.

When Mike got home from work he was sitting on the floor & I was on the couch & Gavin was by Mike. I reached out my hands again to Gavin to get him to walk to me & he actually let go of Mike & took a couple steps to me. Then he turned around & walked back to Mike. Then he was done. It was such a proud mama moment! I was beeming from ear to ear! I am so proud of my little guy.

I was just talking to my mom yesterday & she was saying that he could do it, he just doesn't want to! Now she says that he will be walking & running by himself in a matter of weeks! Can't wait for that:) hehe! Such a proud mama today!

Walking...Sort of

Gavin is a little walking machine, when he is holding on to something. He cruises around EVERYTHING. The couch, your legs, the door, chairs, the desk, his crib, beds, toilets, tubs, IT ALL! He especially loves to walk with his cart walker! We took him outside & he was in walking with a walker heaven! Check out the pictures & video for yourself.
