Tentative steps...

Matthew took his first two steps yesterday! Then (of course), he got noodle legs and was happy to crawl. He actually got mad at me when I stood him up and tried to hold his hands to walk. I don't know whether to be happy or sad that he's close to walking. I have been very reluctant for my baby to grow up this time--probably because I know that he may be my last baby. Funny how much the desire for your child to grow changes from child #1 to child #2. It seemed like Alex couldn't grow fast enough, and I anxiously awaited each milestone. With Matty, I think I was able to enjoy each moment of babyhood more because I wasn't in a hurry for him to grow. So, I will be making every effort to enjoy the next few days of babyhood before my youngest officially joins the ranks of "toddler". I definitely need to catch his speed demon crawl on film before it is no more!
