These feet were made for Walking

Finally!

It's not perfect just yet, but he is SOOOO close, it's killing me!  Tristan is walking all by himself!  I mean, he's not like running down he sidewalk or perusing the isles at grocery stores, but he can make it from one side of the room to the other without stopping.  And for our little torticollis baby, it's simply amazing to see him making these huge strides.

For the last few weeks, we have trained him to wear if we hold our hands out to him, that means he needs to let go of whatever he is holding on to, and try walking to us.  And that evolved to him just taking off on his own.  He is walking all over the house now.  We still need to work on him being able to stand up on his own so he can just get up and walk; he still needs to use something, like a chair, to stand before he can get moving.  But, slowly but surely, he will get there.

He's also getting smart about other things.  Like, he tried opening his wipie box but couldn't, so he handed it to me.  When I shrugged at him and tried to hand it back, he shook his head and tapped the lid with his finger.  Or if he is done with something, he hands it to us, like his binkie or drink cup.  And if he wants something, he will grunt (eh eh eh) until he get it or do it for him.  I swear, sometimes it sounds like he is forming words and trying to talk to us, but mostly it's just baby babble, which is dang cute anyways.

But that was our exciting news for the week, Tristan is walking!  Yeay baby!
