Okay, this has been a long time coming but finally… after months of pulling myself along furniture and pantlegs… I can walk! All by myself! I still can’t go too far – but the other day I walked all the way from the living room into my own room. Not bad if I do say so myself. My balance is getting better everyday too. Sometimes if I get going a little too fast, I’ll just stop and get my balance back before I fall down (I fell on my face the other day with my binky in my mouth and that was not fun).
Oh yeah, you might notice my new toy mom and dad got me – they keep calling it a “mouse” but it really doesn’t squeak like they say mice do – and it’s definitely not furry – but I like it! I also really like to have a burp rag on my head. It is soooooo funny!
Oh, one last thing. Before I started walking, I learned how to climb! I love to climb on anything and everything! Tables, chairs, stairs, mom, dad, couches, beds and especially the futon in my room – I feel like the king of the mountain (plus I can grab all the toys on my windowsill that way)! I can climb all the way up the stairs and back down again without any help – although mom and dad always follow me for some reason.
Anyway, I’ve got to go harass mom some more (she thinks I’m sleeping).
Talk at ya later!

Chase- you are a turkey! I thought I heard you typing last night!
You are a great walker! Daddy & I are so proud of you. You forgot to tell everyone, conveniently, that you were climbing on the kitchen drawers yesterday. I think it is time for a trip to REI, to climb the rock wall.
Love you!
Mom
