And we have a walker...

Steve and I had a little bet going. He said that Cole would be walking before his first birthday, I said he wouldn't. Addie walked a week or two shy of her first birthday and I remember her doing a lot more cruising and pushing a car across the room earlier than Cole did at the same age. Guess what? We were both right. Cole technically took his first unassisted steps before his first birthday. I should know the date, but I don't--it's somewhere on a video on my phone and someday I may go back and find it, but today...you'll just have to believe me :) So...again comparing the kids. Addie wasn't a fast crawler--if you remember, she did a funny one leg in front one leg behind crawl. Cole on the other hand is pretty durn fast. So I think that while he was excited to take some steps, he realized that crawling is just way more efficient. So since he took his first steps almost a month ago now, he still hasn't taken to walking all that much, but here and there, he'll just bust out and go at it.
