Hey mel_thekiwimum!! Lovely to hear from you! And no! Jackson is not the only one not walking - DD#2 will hold our fingers and walk but not on her own.....she too shuffles around the furniture at lightning speed but she has only just recently taken to standing on her own for a few seconds at a time.....the proud as punch smile she does with her hands in the air is too cute! So yes, don't worry......all bubbies at their own pace I say (oh and DD#1 was 13&1/2 months before she took her first steps too, so older than DD#2 atm)

And awwww on getting all those colds n stuff, especially hand foot & mouth! Oh that must've been terrible! I hope his health stints lengthen so you get more sleep!!!
