Jevin Walks!!!

So it is official... Jevin is walking. He started walking on Saturday (Feb. 28) and he has be motoring ever since. Above is a 4 second clip that Jason took just as it all began. He had taken some steps before but only randomly so we didn't count them. Saturday was the first time he took many steps at once.

It's funny to compare children.

• Josie walked at 10 1/2 months.
• Jevin walked at 11 1/2 months.

• Josie stood freely at 10 months (without walking).
• Jevin is only figuring that out after the fact.

• Josie was all over the sofas at this age.
• Well, yeah, some things are the same.

• Josie figured out how to pull herself up, swing her legs over and drop out of the crib shortly after one year.
• We are crossing out fingers that Jevin never figures this out.

And some other observations:

• Josie would finish 240 cc's in seconds.
• Jevin takes his sweet time, and still chokes occasionally, which freaks me out. (For those of you who know about our summer experience, you'll understand.)

• Josie slept through the night the first time when she was 3 months and through the night regularly after 6-ish months.
• Jevin has slept through the night a total of 4 times since birth... and by through the night I mean 8 hours.

Well, enjoy your week. When it warms up a bit, I'll get some park pictures now that Jev is walking. Little helper JoJo is sure to show him the ropes (or perhaps the swings :P).
