And he's walking...finally!

Over the past few weeks, Jack would take a couple of steps at a time, sometimes up to four in a row. But walking across the room has been a long time coming. I thought Mara was late when she didn't walk until she was 13 months old. Then, Jack's 17-month birthday came and went, and he was only doing a few steps at a time.

He started walking just in time. He's supposed to move up to the next class (older toddlers) tomorrow, but they can't move him up until he is "toddling" well. While he may not get to move up with his friends tomorrow, he won't be stuck in the younger class for long now.

He celebrated walking by doing one of his new favorite activities – dancing on the coffee table.

And to prove he was walking, here is a video of him walking.
