Let's see...May 11, Corin decided it was easiest to walk from the ottoman to the table rather than sit, crawl and stand. This was, maybe, 4 steps. That's been happening pretty consistently. If things are just a couple of steps away, he'll walk, thankyouverymuch.
Today, though, he wanted the 'hot dog' (octagonal pylon that gets put on it's side such that kids can use it to do handspring like motions or roll it as a walker) at Little Gym. He was pulling on my hand trying to get me to help him walk over to it. I would go a little way and then no further to keep him out of the way of the other kids.
Then he let go.
He must have taken about a dozen steps almost running after his teacher and that hot dog. He wanted it BAD...and caught it. Repeatedly.
Now, it's easier to taken a half dozen+ steps, fall down and then crawl. We're in trouble when he figures out how to stand up without help. For now, he's building stamina, balance and speed. Quickly.
I think I'm going to be in trouble soon.
