It was so nice out yesterday! Jack and I went to visit one of my very best friends...she just got a new puppy (a little pug) and Jack had so much fun playing he didn't want to leave!
When we got home it just seemed way too nice to stay inside so we went out front and played ball on the side walk. Jack was sitting on the steps and I was throwing the ball to him...he loved it! I got a little tired of chasing the ball into the street so I asked Jack if he wanted to go for a walk with his walker. He seemed perplexed by the question because up until yesterday we've only walked around the house or at school with the walker.
Jack did an EXCELLENT job! I was too leary of letting him walk on his own because of being on the sidewalk so I had a hand on the walker at all times. We went down the block to the mailbox and back! At certain points we had to stop only because he was laughing too hard to walk at the same time...which in turn made me laugh until i had tears! We would catch our breath and continue on our way. We were heading back towards the house as daddy was getting home...he parked the car and then we all went to Friendly's for dinner. Jack sat in a booster seat (no highchair!!!) and was such a good boy!
We had an excellent day yesterday! I plan on taking him for an outside walk at least once a day!
Oh...Jack walked with the walker all over school last week. His favorite thing to do is use the walker to go over to the sink and wash his hands. He was able to stay standing and turn the water on at the same time!!! The PT was thrilled! I only wish I could have seen it!
