I think the question most people ask us these days about the kids is "So is Skylar walking yet?" I think when he does we will have a huge party! Like everything else, he does things in his own sweet time. He is not motivated by seeing Elaina do something. Nope, until he is good and ready he doesn't do it! Do we think he can walk? Absolutely! He cruises fast, walks holding our hands, climbs, and crab crawls. But once you let go of him, he won't even try to walk. We keep saying...I hope he walks by Easter, I hope he walks by the time we go to Gibson Island. Now I just hope he walks by the time he is 2!
I had to laugh at something my mom told me which is kind of how I feel about Skylar walking. She asked my brother (who I hope doesn't mind if I share) if Olivia had slept through the night a few nights ago because they have been working on that. He replied...everyone asks us that and the answer is NO! She didn't sleep through the night, she has never slept through the night, and she never WILL sleep through the night! It just cracked me up because when you are waiting for a baby/child to do something it seems like they will never do it!
The man is independent (except of course when he wants his mom-always) and he does what he wants. keep doing what you do and he will come around to it when he's good and ready! Can't wait to see them again next weekend.
