Walker...

Jack has been doing so much walking with his walker at school. There, he uses a Reverse Kaye He can go 70+ feet at a time! He uses it on the playground and in the classroom. At home he uses the Crocodile Walker. It's a little harder to turn than the Kaye, but it's other features are important too...I am glad he is learning to walk with both.

I took a small video clip of Jack about an hour ago pulling to stand at his walker. I wish I could express how HUGE of a milestone he's accomplished. We've been working on this for over a year and he does it now with speed and without help. When we first started teaching him how to get up into the walker you could tell he really didn't have the motor planning sequence at all...now it's just a matter of becoming more confident.

(Waiting on the video to upload 25% finished...lol)

I have been thinking a lot lately about the day Jack takes his first independent step. I wonder when it will happen...where he'll be...where I'll be (This boy had BETTER walk for the first time in front of ME! lol) It feels so far away even though he's so far from where he was last year at this time. It will be one sweet day, that's for sure.

(Okay, video is 32% complete...)

FINALLY, here's THE MOMENT you've been waiting for!
