bipedal boy

on the last day of his 12th month, on the eve of becoming a big 13 month old, james became a real-deal legitimate walker. he's been flirting with walking, and has become an excellent wall and furniture cruiser, holding on for support as he walks along. but today he made the leap, and once he strung 10 steps together, he was delighted and excited, and couldn't get enough of it. he spent all afternoon walking, walking, walking, (falling) getting back up, and walking again.






you will also notice he's dressed like a christmas elf. i assure you, that is intentional.
