9...Count 'Em...9!!!

Matthew took his first steps today...9 total steps all by himself.

We've been working on getting him to stand on his own, and I was doing that in the middle of the room and he just took off.

He's looked like such a big boy watching him do that (of course, it looked like slow motion). I'm so proud of him and now we've got to spend some serious time securing cabinets and fragiles.
