Yay! First Walkies!

Yay! We are so proud of you Poobaroo! Look at the look of absolute joy on Christopher's face as he took his first steps under his own steam tonight instead of having to rely on one of the Big People (or the Big Stupid One {as James refers to himself in discussions with his son} and The One with Boobs {as James refers to me in discussions with his son}).

Thank you to Uncles Dougie and AJ for the green-handled Fisher Price baby zimmer which happens to be one of Christopher's favouritist toys ever and to Christopher's Godmother, Taz for the loan of the orange-handled baby zimmer (another big favourite with Christopher). I have not laughed so much in ages as he grabbed the handle and practically ran across the room and then had a minor tantrum each time that I tried to assist him to turn around and infact even tried to mow me down a number of times (maybe I should be called the Big STupid One No.2?). Then we were out of the bedroom and off down the passage. Stairs- no problem- with Amma's help we magically sailed over these as we careened onward into the lounge and straight for the TV. Unfortunately, there were some quilts on the floor with all your toys scattered on them- but zimmer was then used as a steamroller- which didn't work too well as it reared up in protest and you fell over (but Mommy had a wonderful laugh at the chief entertainment that you were providing on your adventure and no harm was suffered- except maybe to your little baby ego). Well done, beautiful, fearless, Poobaroo! We ruvs you rong time!!!
