The Toddling Toddler

Alhamdulillah, Sa'eed can now walk on his own. Before this, he would make sure there's someone nearby, take 2 or 3 steps and lunge at the person. But as of yesterday (with Gib and his family as witnesses) Sa'eed can walk independently. I think it's because we kept walking with him while letting him hold a finger with one hand. In truth, we weren't really supporting his weight or anything...he just needed that little bit of assurance to give him confidence. Lo and behold, last night he was confident enough to try it on his own.

First he walked about 3 feet before plopping down. Then he walked for almost 2 meters! I am definitely happy :) Hehe, in lieu of my company's performance evaluation cycle, I've set Sa'eed's KPI to walk on his own by the time he turns 14 months. And he managed to do it 3 days shy of him turning 14 months.

Oh boy, can't wait for the adventures ahead! Gotta work on those cloth shoes quickly...and I realize that this blog needs more pictures!
