Cheers to the New Bi-Ped

Aidan has taken more than two steps on his own. FINALLY!!

I can now say to anyone who asks "Is he walking on his own yet?" "Yes, as a matter of fact he is." I don't have to tell anyone that it was only at the beach and he wouldn't repeat it at home. It is ok. He can do it. Well I have known for months that he could do it. He just wouldn't walk on his own.

His first step he fell but then he got back up and started motoring to the hibachi on the ground just getting ready to be lit. Ah, you say it was the danger factor that we hadn't counted on. Aidan will walk towards the things he really wants, and the things he wants are dangerous. Hmm I might have to sneak a couple of sharp knives to my Mom at the airport to entice Aidan to walk to her. That wouldn't get me into trouble, eh?

I will try to get some of this fabulous walking on the web as soon as Aidan will walk in front of the video camera. The cool thing though is that Aidan walked in front of both Anthony and I. You never know when a real first is going to happen, and I am very glad that both of us got to see it.

One of the advantages of getting up early is the ability to learn things before everyone else. I'm sure that Grandma Kathy will be thrilled, but .....
without a video or pictures maybe your just pulling our legs!!!!....LOL

Love to all,
big hugs to my grandson....there are many surprises at grandpa's house. Looking forward to seeing you all.

Wonderful Aidan. Grandpa John may have been up early and seen this but didn't tell me :( A whole new world has opened up to Aidan and everyone else. Hurry up and get this on video. We need to see him walking to things and then climbing them. And he did this on his 17 month birthday!!!

Lots of hugs and kisses

I am sure that he will be ready to run to see his Nana. I don't know where I can get something dangerous between the airoplane and the luggage pick up but I'll try. Love you.
