We've watched him walk with his walker, we've noticed he started standing from a squat, and we've also seen him standing alone touching nothing, so I figured the day would come and he would take off walking....and he did!!!
**Side Note** For the past year I have struggled with the idea of someone else (Maw-maw or Gigi) getting to see all of the firsts in Isaac's life, while I am at work when my one desire is to be with Isaac, well he walked for the first time, I mean really walked, on Tuesday when it was just the two of us! How awesome is our God to allow for such a milestone to be witnessed by Isaac's mommy - I'm in tears thinking about it!**
Back to my story - here's what happened...I took Isaac for his 12 month well visit Tuesday, Isaac got FOUR shots - 2 in each leg, 2 in the muscle two in the fat OUCH!!! So I figured he would sleep for a loooong time once I got him home. Well, he only slept for 20 minutes. When he woke up, I fed him and set him on his feet - AND HE STARTED WALKING!!!! He toddled over to his toy chest!! It was amazing!! So that evening I caught it on video the lighting isn't that great but you can still see him walk!
**Another Side Note** Thinking back I believe God has proven himself gracious through this entire first year of Isaac's life. His first smile, first roll over, first word, first crawl, and now first steps all done in front of Sal and Me - HOW AMAZING! Remembering that gives me the strength to continue being obedient and trusting that we are in the middle of God's will for our lives. To know that God knows how important all those firsts were to us that he allowed our son to share them with us first - WOW, humbling...
Enjoy the video...
