baby steps

About a month ago we took a picture called "no hands" that showed PC standing by his truck clutching a couple flowers he'd just destroyed. Since that time, he's been doing a LOT of "cruising" along furniture and he loves to walk around holding our hands.

But now we're getting very very close to full walking independence. This afternoon, after lola and lolo's, we went out in the front yard where there's thick grass and set him on his feet. And bam! Five steps! Five, unaided steps, and twice--once walking from me to his mom, and once the other way. It's exciting.

I think this is the first time I've ever used the phrase "baby steps" to refer to the actual thing.
