Well, Israel took his own sweet time starting to walk, much to my surprise since he was my earliest crawler! I guess these little ones just like to keep us guessing!
Anyway, a couple days ago he took off, at 13.5 months old. 🙂 No slow build-up here! Once he decided to go for it, he was off! And SO proud of himself to be such a big boy! It totally made his whole day – he was just so happy with himself!
Look at him go!
And go!
And go!
So excited about his progress!
Maybe this would be an appropriate place to include one of Joshua’s recent comments about Israel…..
A few weeks ago, Joshua said to me with such a happy face, “Mommy, it is such a blessing to have Israel in our family! He helps us a lot! He cleans all the garbage off the floor so we dont even have to!”
Hehe, who needs a dog? LOL! Joshua was not being sarcastic at all – he was totally serious! I dont even think he knows how to be sarcastic…. 🙂
And a video clip of the action:
