thanks sherie - i know everyone keeps telling me how much more work it will be when he walks.. though when i had to CARYY him arond the petting zoo for about an hour today i must say i was thinking i will be fine with him walking!! anyway, we are a way off yet, i am sure these baby steps will last a while.. but it is exxciting. i am sad dh is away and missed it, but glad it happened on a home with mummy day not at FDC.
