Tristan's First Steps

Yay, Baby! I also have to note for the record today, that Tristan took his first steps (more than two) unassisted and without prompting. I was sitting on the sofa and the just let go of the front of the sectional where he was cruising up and playing what I think might be his version of Cheerio Shark when he just flat let go and walked over to me with his hands above his head.

He’s been taking one or two steps here and there, and he’s been walking with assistance for a couple of weeks now, clinging to Jorma or my fingers like his magic feather while he walks across the room. Today’s celebration is that he just let go. After much praise he did it again and again and then repeated for Jorma later in the afternoon.

Tristan’s so proud of himself too, now we just get to walk behind him for the next month to make sure he doesn’t crack his head on the tile.
