WALK ON BUDDY!!!!!


PARKER IS WALKING!!!

I was sitting on the couch at Thad's house, feeding Stephan in my lap.  Parker was holding onto the coffee table in front of me saying "ma ma ma" which is actually "milk milk milk" not "mama mama mama".  Anyway, all of a sudden, a little bald head darts across the living room!  I realize Parker has let go of the table and taken off for behind the couch.  

"YOU'RE WALKING!!!!!" I screamed - completely scaring him.  He crashed, slamming his face into the door frame of the back door leaving him with a HUGE goose egg on his forehead and a swollen knot on his nose! He screamed bloody murder for like 30 minutes!  I thought he broke his nose.  Even still - I kept saying "I'm so proud of you!"  "You did it!!".  

What a great moment!  Aside from the crash landing, it was perfect technique if I may say so myself!

Yay for Parker walking! How fun! (Hopefully he won't associate it with hitting his head and never want to walk again!) :) j/k

Hope all is well for you.
