Nathan Walking

Nathan just discovered he could walk tonight! He's been doing a squat and getting himself in the standing position for a couple weeks but he usually just throws the ball he's holding and squats back down. His "second" walk tonight was 18 steps! We didn't count the first one but I think it was about 10. Later, he walked up and down the hall, so excited to be walking. That's when I took this video. (I think it's funny that he already has a ball in his right hand but has to go get the other ball at the end of the hall as well.)

He really hadn't been doing much before this. Just a few steps between people and usually falling on the person he was walking toward.

Woods right by the house the Sanchez' are trying to buy

These are the woods practically across the street from where the Sanchez' are trying to buy, on the North side of Foster. We had a beautiful walk and saw a bunch of deer.

We timed the walk from our condo to what will hopefully be the Sanchez home and it was only 13 minutes!

This is officially my first post from our new laptop. Much faster! :)

Nathan's Favorite Game

This is Nathan's favorite thing to do: crawl on the windowsill behind the couch, throw the ball, and climb over the back of the couch.

Dog

Nathan's watching the dog out the window.

Laughing

I can't remember what Briant was doing but it must have been funny! This one is old but the rest of the videos are from tonight.

Where's The Ball?

Nathan, pointing to the different balls in his book.

Pat Your Head (or someone else's...)

Shrug Your Shoulders, Swing Your Arms

We're pretty sure Nathan understands these in French and in English. :)

Despite all of my efforts though, everything Nathan says is in English:
doh for dog
ba for bottle
bye-bye
muh for more...

Latest Pictures

I haven't been very good at taking pictures or updating my blog lately. I forgot our camera when we went to Seattle but thankfully, you can see what we did on Katie's blog!

Here what I do have..."Here Kyleigh, have a strawberry. Then I'll help myself to a few since my mom didn't give me any..."


Nathan is starting to look older... and tanner! I'm so happy that Winter is over! Nathan loves going down the slides head first and climbing back up them. We went to the free day at the Planetarium yesterday. I parked at a friend's house and walked 2 miles there and back. We had to make sure we got out in the 80 degree weather.

"My mom finally got something out that was low enough for me to climb into/unto."
Actually, Nathan climbed up onto a wooden chair a couple days ago. He hasn't done it since then so I think he forgot that he can do it.
