First Steps!

Elliott took his first steps tonight! John washed his hands after dinner and set him down on the floor where he remained standing and took two mini shuffle-steps that I didn't see. John exclaimed; I looked over; Elliott remained standing and then took two more steps, small but John says more substantial than the first two. He seemed pretty pleased with himself then and after he sat down. We were a little surprised at how excited we were!

A little while later we captured one more step on video, but I was too close and holding out a hand, so he just squatted and reached for it, then taking several confident steps holding lightly onto my finger.

It was fun!
