New tricks

K, I know it's long, but this video includes: crawling, sitting, giggling, standing, dancing, and walking- with assistance (note, if you hang out til the end, the second round of walking is much better than the first).
I won't be offended in the slightest if you fast forward over the crawling... it does get better, I think, really...

He does crawl faster than that- just not on cue:). When I want him to be still, that's when he's a speeding bullet.
Forgive my frumpy clothes. I realized if I were to wait until I both had time and was presentable and Daniel was agreeable, I'd be showing off his walking skills sometime around his 5th birthday.
Note: all of our lego creations are behind the kiddy-fence in the background. Thanks to Kevin and Candace's gift, our legos (and DVDs, and harp) are kiddy-fence protected.

PS May I just say how proud I am that when he took two left steps, I said "two left feet" without even thinking about it? Usually I have to stop and make an "L" with my left hand before saying a direction.

I am so glad to learn another adult has to do the "L" to remind themselves.
