Two Steps Forward and One Step Back...

Yesterday was quite a milestone for 13 month old Sam. He took his first steps to his Mama. He had a big smile plastered across his face and I was bursting with pride. He has been cruising from object to object for some time, but he went solo yesterday!

Kate appeared mildly concerned about the amount of attention her brother was getting, so she had to come up with something, too. The best she could come up with in short order was to let her shorts sag and fall off as she ran across the room in front of her brother. I would see her dart by with her shorts sliding down and then find them standing up right where they fell off.

I was watching this paradox of progression in the younger and regression in the older at the same time. It was quite entertaining. Kids certainly make daily life more interesting!
