Andrew's first steps and Happy New Year

To ring in the New Year, Andrew decided to learn a new skill! He took his first real steps! He's been standing, cruising furniture and walking while holding our hands for a long time. We've seen the occasional step here and there that really were balance corrections.

While we were all sitting on the floor and playing together, Andrew just stood up and took 4 steps alone! We all cheered and he yelled too! I think he was just as surprised and stunned as we were. I ran and grabbed the camera to get the next steps recorded on video. We think this is pretty funny because he's so darn excited that he doesn't know how to respond! He yells with excitement, looks stunned and then giggles with us. All of it's pretty cute :)

What a fun way to start the Year of the Ox. Happy New year to everyone. May you all have a wonderful year full of great things!
