My 10.5 month old Charles is so close to walking, and I am so not ready. The week of Thanksgiving when we were with my family, he really seemed to take off on some skills. He's much more expressive and varied verbally, he learned to drink from a straw, he can munch on little rice-cakes, he began playing peek-a-boo spontaneously (moving something to cover his face or hiding behind a stationary object before popping out again), he figured out how to carefully propel himself along on my old wooden Radio Flyer toy, and he began walking all over the place using the "walker" my mom got him. Since we've been home, he's also learned where his tongue is, and we have some giggles taking turns sticking our tongues out at one another.
Note the concentration ;)
We spent some time with my family watching old videos from when I was exactly Charles' age, and it was really neat to see the similarities and note the differences. He is definitely my son, but he is also definitely his own little self. I just love my little guy so much!
