I Did It!

I did it! I did it! I walked on my own today! Everyone has been trying to get me to walk on my own for several months, but they needed to just wait. I did it on my own time. Today, daddy put me in my coat to take me to the park after he got home for work. After he put my coat on, I was standing on my own and he was a couple of feet away from me. He called me and motioned for me to come to him. So I tried. I stepped out with my right foot and I tried to walk. I only took one step, and then I fell, but I did it!

Then, after we got back from the park, we went over to see the three doggies at our neighbors -- Al and Kate's house. The doggies are named Bearl, Bear, and Buddy. They are my favorites. So, daddy put me on the ground, standing in front of the fence and looking at the doggies. Then he called me, and I started walking! I took three steps to him. Then we did it again and again. Ms. Kate was outside and daddy told her I was taking my first steps. She was so excited.

Then we went inside and daddy asked me to walk some more. I would take two steps and fall into daddy's arms. I am good at this walking thing! But then I decided that I was tired and I started scooting again. I guess I have to earn my nickname -- Scooter!

When mommy got home, daddy told her what happened. She was so excited. I can't wait to show her how I can walk tomorrow.
