Walkin' and Rollin'.

Last week, Asher found some courage and just took off walking around the house. He's no longer a "wall walker," he toddles up and down the hallways, in and out of bedrooms and even in the yard! This milestone came fast...he just decided one night that he was ready and took off. He still needs a fixed object to pull up on, but once he's up, he's movin'! He loves his new found freedom and flashes us this big, cheesy grin as if he's SO proud of himself. Of course, he gets lots of cheers and hugs from all of us. This week he's even started carrying things around while he walks...sometimes even trying to drink his bottle or sippy cup. He'll occasionally try to "run" to keep up with Carter, but then falls on his face. We're gearing up for the new look of spring/toddlerhood: bruises, cuts, scrapes, etc. Carter began walking at pretty much this exact same age. One thing's for sure: nothing is safe anymore...Asher's in to everything!
