Walk! Walk!

Now that Owen has taken his first step, he can't get enough of walking. He is still at the point where he needs help to walk but we are incredibly happy with his progress. He even knows the word "walk" and uses it pretty much all the time.


We have now entered the new stage of parenthood: sore backs from bending over helping him walk, being the slow people in the store as our child "walks" through the aisles, and avoiding restaurants since who would want to sit when you can walk!


Today is also Grandparent Withdrawl Day. A day filled with an angry baby who is not getting the attention he knows he deserves. No McDonald Happy Meals, no walking up and down the outside curb whenever he demands it, and no one constantly holding him. Life is rough on Grandparent Withdrawl Day. Luckily, we're bringing in another Grandparent mid-week, so Owen will get the undivided attention he's become so accustomed to.
