We're Walking...We're Walking...

Paxton has turned into a walking machine!  It literally took him a weekend to learn how to walk.  And, it just so happened to be Mother's Day weekend...what a great gift :-) 

He had been standing up on his own for a couple of weeks, but last weekend, he decided he wanted to start walking.  We kept thinking, oh it's going to take a month or so, but he surprised us once again!  Paxton started off pulling himself up to his feet using furniture or grabbing on to our pants...now he's able to stand up completely on his own.  He'll take about 10 steps, then plop right down on his bottom.  Thank goodness for the extra diaper padding to break his fall!

To celebrate, little Pax and I went to buy him some new shoes.  He decided on two pair (like mommy, he can't choose just one), some Nikes and some cute DCs.  Although he's not the biggest fan of keeping his shoes on, he sure does like to take them off and chew on em!  We're still getting him used to wearing and walking in them.  Oh, and this kid's feet are huge...size 5s seem to fit the best - they're like water skis!  He's going to be tall like his daddy.

Here are some videos of Paxton walking like a little penguin :-)
