Jack's First Steps

Friday when we picked Jack up from daycare, we were told he had attempted a few short journeys from station to station on foot. The daycare ladies said he had done pretty well, and that they suspected it would be just a short while until he started walking.

Well Friday night when we finally got home, we went over to Jon's house, since he has carpet and our house in entirely wood/tile, and after a few words of encouragement.... Presto!!!! Jack Walked. He willingly went back and forth between the two of us six or seven times. There were a few times that he just took one or two steps and then lunged, but for the most part, he was walking. We practiced a few more times and this morning finally got him to do it on cue. Here is the video of Jack and his new skillz.....
