That being said, I put my list aside this weekend and Mike and I had a great time hanging out with Shaunie. We went and bought him his first pair of hard soled shoes. And while they are extremely cute, he is still adjusting to walking in them and took quite a tumble yesterday. Poor baby fell right on his face in the street and looks a little beat up this morning. Broke my heart. One of those moments where you seem him falling and it all goes in slow motion. I felt horrible.
We took him to the park yesterday and haven't taken him there since he started walking well. He was a wild man and had an absolute blast. He has no fear. Climbed right up on the play ground and was ready to explore. We took him down the slide for the first time and he laughed and smiled all the way down. Kept running back up to the top and saying "go....go!" Eventually he appeared to want to brave the slide alone and after multiple supervised attempts we realized that our big boy didn't need our help. Seems he is sturdy enough and brave enough to get down the slide safely by himself. I am including a video below. Don't worry Mom...I assure you he was safe and supervised! He even knows to grab onto the sides...smart boy :) Enjoy!
