And he’s off. . . !
While we were in Little Rock, babyBaum decided it was time to start walking more than two steps at a time. Brace yourselves for this exciting update: he now walks about 10-15 steps at a time! I unsuccessfully tried several times to capture his walking on video. While we were picnicking at the Little Rock Zoo, he became enamored with all the sticks and tree branches on the ground. Armed with all the tree branches they could hold, his two cousins and his Aunt Anna encouraged him to walk, while I cheered him on with video camera in hand. Finally, what you’ve all been waiting for - a successful video of some of his first steps:

This second video is from the same day. Oftentimes, Fred will hoist babyBaum onto his shoulders when we’re out walking. Lately, babyBaum has taken to grabbing two fistfuls of Fred’s hair and using these tufts of hair as his reins to hang on and pull Fred in the direction he wants to go. So cute but so glad it’s Fred’s hair he’s doing this to and not mine!
