My big boy

Tonight I rocked Henry to sleep. I don't think I ever have done this before. When he was younger he wanted to bounce, now I guess he likes to rock. When I sat down in the rocker and started rocking him he just looked up at me and smiled. It was nice.

That 10 minutes was all I had today.
Someday it'll be different.

Walking!

Walking!

Little dude finally felt comfortable enough to take the plunge and truly walk around today! We've felt like he's had the strength and balance for a long time now, and took his first step quite a while ago, so we've been waiting. The Solyntjeses encouraged him to walk quite a bit while we were up there, and he was taking quite a few steps. Now today (back home) he's walking around like a pro. Pretty exciting!
