Sixteen Month Pedestrians

I wasn't going to panic until Son2 turned 16 months. I told myself this when he crawled at 8 months. Don't expect him to walk. Just love the crawling, don't anticipate the walking.

After all, his big brother walked at 16 months. He never toddled, fell down, or walked into things. Nope. He stood up and walked across the house at 16 months, without warning. At 18 months he pretty much went on a complete stroller strike and insisted on walking EVERYWHERE at big people speed. We never bought a double stroller, even though the kids are 2.5 years apart!

Son2 was a crawler and a surfer one day, and the next day he was a walker. He's been a pedestrian for a week and a half. See him walk and see what he finds!

  1. He's toddlin' so well! Why is it they always seem to find the stuff we don't want them to? I swear they are born with some sort of sensor which helps them find all things in the "no touch" category! Of and I do think he deserves some jello after all that walking ;)!

  4. Aren't they just so adorable when they start walking--but boy, doesn't it get old fast, and don't you wish they would go back to crawling? LOL.

    You're going to have to find a new hiding place for your jewelry though. The whole world knows where you hide it now!!
