Tonight after Brock got off of work we sat on the floor of the kitchen playing with Braxton. As we played, Braxton surprised us by standing up all by himself for about 20 seconds without holding on to anything (he has never done that before!). We applauded for him and Brock said, "maybe he actually will take his first steps before Christmas". Then, about five minutes later I was holding Braxton and said, "go to daddy". Braxton stood up, stretched out his arms toward Brock and took five steps into Brock's arms. It was unbelieveable. Such a special family moment. Here is a photo a few minutes afterwards. After that, Brock and Braxton went to blow out the candles in the living room and I snapped the second "candlelight" photo.

Look out, he's mobile!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome. Now you're gonna have to lock down everything that wasn't already locked down.
And I LOVE the candlight pic.
