It's official, Oliver is walking!

After a week of testing out the water, Oliver started walking a few feet at a time yesterday June 20th (11 months and 4 days old). Up to that point we would only catch glimpses of it out of the corner of our eyes. We were convinced he was secretly walking, and only crawls to keep us from not picking him up.

This morning during our usual routine of me making breakfast in the kitchen and Oliver watching his sign language video (By the way, he can sign milk, eat, all done, and his new favorite animal-dog) I watched from the kitchen as he walked around the living room holding a balloon. It was the cutest things I've ever seen.

I've also noticed today that he didn't want to be picked up as much. Oh...how quickly things change.
