Shortly before Christmas, Graham's Oma generously purchased him his very first pair of real, big-boy walking shoes. Prior to getting these walkers, which are the "next best thing to barefoot walking," G had been in soft-soles shoes like his PediPeds, which I don't think were offering him quite enough support. Once we got him in the StrideRites, the improvement in his walking skills were near instantaneous. Which is great, I love watching Graham improve and develope new skills, but yeah... he's EVERYWHERE now!!!
He gravitates to cabinets and their contents. The more breakable/spillable/crumb-producing, the better:
@ Oma's house, getting into her baking goodsHe has a newfound love of toilet paper, tissue-filled trash cans, and that little porcelain "pool" in the powder room:
Shoes? I don't need no stinkin' shoes now, I'm a professional walker! (And yes, those ARE mini-Saucony trainers! Aren't they just too freaking ah-door-ah-ble?!?!?)
He's not even safe in his little "baby jail" anymore. He just wants to get out and RUN.
Who knew these little things could cause so much trouble?!?!
So yeah, a big ol' huge THANKS MOM for getting him those walking shoes. How ever will I repay you?!?!?
Oops, gotta go, *someone* is getting into the entertainment center. Again....
