Let The Run For The Roses Begin-CJK First Steps

Okay- So he's not really running 
for the ROSES
but he is walking towards
the Fairy Garden. 
which is a mess because it has been horribly neglected.

My son popped over to show me something
special.
Day before this CJK was sitting....
just plain sitting...
and smiling...
and waving.

However, this particular morning
my son lifted him out of his crib,
sat him on the floor and 
he got up and walked.

These are his first steps
OUTSIDE
on grass.
It lasts exactly
FOURTEEN SECONDS.
If you have kids you will remember these days,
if you don't have kids you can see for yourself
how precious those first steps are.
Enjoy!
I will be back tomorrow to show you 
how Ruth's formal living room looks
IF you watch my  CJK video!;>)

He's doing pretty good, considering he has only just started. Time to start nailing everything down once they get going!

He's going to be a runner that one lol - those were a lot more than just a few first steps!!!!!!!!
Too precious!
XOXO

It is the most beautiful thing...to watch a baby walk the first time. How unsure, and yet confident, he is!

Lucille said...

How sweet and precious! I kept watching it over and over again! It's so amusing to see him enjoying his first steps! I find that he walked a long distance for the first time. I'm sending him a virtual hug. He's so adorable. I would have loved to have seen the look on his face when he fell. So cute!

I watched it several times. He loved the armature (sp).
He took a good look but I think he was heading for the red wheelbarrow? He doesn't waste time!

Judy at GoldCountryCottage said...

Oh, Diana. I remember so well. That is the cutest time. What a little doll. He did so well for the first time on grass. When we used to visit when Jake was first walking, he always wanted to help us bring our stuff into the house, We let him carry a pillow, and all the way down the hall, we heard, "Oh, this is so hebby, this is so hebby..Happy Monday..Judy

Maureen Wyatt said...

It's so cute when he turns his head to look at the garden ornament. Like he doesn't have enough on his plate just keeping control of crazy legs! What a beautiful moment to have captured.

Unknown said...

Why are they not squealing their heads off as he is walking?? Or are they holding their breath afraid he will fall? LOL Precious, and they are sooooo lucky to capture that on video. How wonderful!

Laura said...
