Locke Walks!

Today, Locke is 14 months old and he is finally starting to take some steps on his own!  He loves to push around everything in the house: chairs, toys, tables, whatever.  He's strong and walks very well as long as he has one hand on something.  But with a little cajoling, we are forcing him to take a few steps on his own.  Here's a good video of Daddy bribing him with oyster crackers. (Funny fact: Ledger was bribed with oyster crackers to walk too.  Our babies love oyster crackers. ?)

He's also doing lots of other fun things.  He has picked up the baby sign for "more" and we're working on "please", "water", and "milk".  He's a pretty sweet baby, but he gets frustrated by his lack of communication. When he wants something or someone, he points at it and if he hears NO, he screams.  He sure has a little temper.  But he can also be sweet as pie!  The whole room lights up when he smiles or laughs.  And he loves to give big, sloppy, open mouth kisses...
