Gabe is Walking!

Gabe is definitely a walker now! He is definitely showing us that he wants to be a big boy by walking back and forth across the room. Up until recently, he has only wanted to crawl or cruise, but has accidentally taken steps when he wasn't paying attention. All this changed last night. He started walking intentionally. He'll go take 15-20 steps at a time before falling on his bum and getting right back up to do it all again. He is determined! I can't wait for his therapists to see him this week -- they will be so proud and surprised! I just love to surprise their therapists with their new skills. Gabe is barely 15 months old, and only 13.5 months adjusted. All this worrying about his tone (although it is still low), and he doesn't seem to be delayed in any area afterall!
Today, we went to April and Russ Gould's house for a Memorial Day BBQ, which was so fun. While we were there, Gabe just loved playing with the older kids. Although I'm not sure they thought he was quite as cool as he thought they were, he had a blast chasing them around and laughing every time they laughed. He looked like a real toddler! I'm so proud of him.
