Wordless Wednesday | Baby's 1st Long Walk

"Now you wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I could run like the wind blows. From that day on, if I was going somewhere, I was running!" ~ Forrest Gump

Baby balancing while walking
Spreading his wings and keeping balance. Our baby is no longer an infant, but a toddler boy and establishing his independence. He loves the world; family, nature, family, toys, milk bottles and snuggling with mama, daddy and brother. This was his first long walk outside. He walked a bit and then ran ... He did a total of about 1/4 of a mile on 1-10-2012; this was his first long walk outside. This was also the first time that he kept shoes on for ANY length of time :)


Our baby was supposed to walk with his brother, but he turned and started
running the way he wanted to go instead of forward :) He is an individual!

Baby Walking To Mailbox
We visited this mailbox like 10 times ... he must like blue or that red flag.

Baby walking towards the trees
Baby walking towards the trees. They consumed his interest for quite a while.

Baby looking at the tree blowing in the wind.
Checking out this really cool tree ... it had a florescent green and lacey appeal.

Baby walking with brother.
Baby walking with his big brother so long as he bounced the basketball :)

Baby walking forward as brother walks backwards - long walk ahead :)

Baby running for the 1st time
Baby running outside for the first time. He ran so hard that I had to catch
him to stop (I will post the video) and he just cried from exhaustion. It hurt
me to see him so frustrated, but I also felt proud ... maybe he will run track?

  6. So adorable! It reminds me of my son at that age; independent from day one! He's almost 3 now, and that wasn't so long ago but it makes me yearn for those early toddler days too.

    I'm visiting from the blog hop on Mommy Only has 2 Hands and this is my first visit to your site. I'll definitely be looking at more posts! I hope you check out my blog as well. www.MommysaFanGirl.com

  7. What an adorable little guy! It is so cool to watch them develop their independence. My Little Bit is turning two in a few weeks. It amazes me how much he learns every single day!
