Our Little Scamper Updated

Christian is growing up so fast. I can hardly keep up with him now. On a daily basis, Christian grabs on to my finger and takes me on a tour of our house. His favorite rooms to go into are the office so he can pull open our filing cabinet and the bathroom where he can get into the garbage and also pull on the toilet paper. Christian also loves the bathroom because he likes to stand and hold on to the tub. I am so scared that one of these days, he's going to fall into the tub.




Christian has now moved up in the world, he now can crawl normally. Chris likes to call his old crawl the breast stroke. Chris likes to say he's our little land swimmer. Christian will trade off doing the breast stroke crawl to normal crawling.



Christian has taken his first steps. He likes to walk in between Chris and I. We think it is so cute how he walks so we call him our little scamper. Christian has started to be more cautious when he walks because he has fallen too many times. Today Chris and I started putting support on his back and kind of give his a little push to get him to walk. It will be interesting if Christian ends up walking at 10 months. In ways, I am looking forward to him walking because I am hoping he will be able to play on his own. On the other hand, I might be constantly chasing him.
