Milestone: Walking

Sven practices walking every day. He can walk all the way across the room. We don't bribe him to do it, he just does it for fun. Or to get into trouble.

Still, he is definitely a walker now. And at only 13 months! That is a record for our family. Yeah for my averagely developing baby!

He actually makes that request pretty frequently. And then he sits there, with Sven cuddled in his lap, looking very proud and happy. Often, one of the boys will tell me very earnestly, "I want Sven to be a part of our family forever." What mother wouldn't melt at that? In the evenings, after scripture study, Soren likes to make Sven "talk", sharing his thoughts on the day. Soren uses the same gravelly voice that Scott does to put words in the baby's mouth. "My favorite part of the day was eating," he'll say, while holding up Sven's ...
