Walking

[walkitout]

The Tedster is walking. Shocking, really. If you define walking as taking two steps in a row without touching anything, he started walking at eight months and a day or so. He was able to do a half dozen in a row as of eight months and ten days. Now (eight and a half months), he's toddling all over the living and dining area. We're currently working on getting off the couch safely, since I was paying inadequate attention one day and did not have a hand on him. He went right off the edge, when I was expecting him to keep crawling forward the way he usually does. Boy was he unhappy about that. He seemed to get it right today, angling his legs down first. We'll see if that was a fluke or not over the next few days.
