Big Steps

Today, while we were playing in the playroom, Everett took his first steps! Two, maybe three - independent STEPS! I happened to have the camera in my hand (I had been videoing him saying "ball") and when he suddenly started walking away from me I hit the record button. But, I was very upset when I looked down to see that it took a second to start recording and I MISSED the steps! There was no way that I was going to get that close to having them recorded and just leave it at that. I figured... if he can do it once, he can do it again... RIGHT?!

Thanks so much Allison and Emily for your persistence and patience with Everett. We didn't get to see first steps 1-2-3 but we DID get to see 4-5 and 6! Tears in my eyes...
