Walking Walking Walking!!

So Zach is becoming more courageous with his walking... this week he has taken quite a few more steps on his own away from us!! I don't really have much of it on video however because anytime i move for the camera he immediately sits down and laughs.. sneaky devil!!



We took him to Build a Bear on Thursday for the first time (we had been hoping to go for his B-day but just never made it over!) and he loved it [at first] he had fun looking at all of the different animals and chose the monkey then we went and picked the monkey noise which he thought was pretty funny and then we went over to fill it and (having never been there before) we let him step on the pedal to fill it.. big mistake!! it was pretty loud & sounded like the vacuum (which he is deathly afraid of!) and the kid jumped up so high and literally started shaking and crying.. poor guy :( so Joe took him over to look at the clothes for him wile we finished filing it... then he came back over and picked out a heart for his monkey and kissed it (so cute!) then we decided on some Batman pj's for his monkey (since Zach has some as well, its too cute!) So all in all it was a pretty good trip! I was worried he wouldn't want anything to do with it after the filling, but as soon as we got home he pulled it out of the box and started to tickle him, lol.



Also we had a fun get together tonight with Joe's parents and his sister Katie before she has to fly back to Virginia sun morning [ :( ] We had a fun dinner and Zach proceeded to wear everyone out walking them all over the yard, around the house, and he finally overcame his fear of the grass!! he was LOVING it tonight!!


So here is Zach with his new beloved Monkey (which he took to bed last night :) and then from this afternoon playing with his Dino's :)

We were just talking about Zach today and we're so proud of him! We can't wait to see you guys... although it seems so far away.
Perhaps a little Mario Kart tournament will lessen the pain :)
