This winter, especially around the joy of Christmas came a new joy in our household . . . Reece's first steps. It was an early Christmas present to us. And to him as well. Because he loved each and every time he put one tiny foot in front of the other. He loved seeing our smiling faces and hearing our squeals of delight and pure parent pride in our voices.
Our little one was growing up. He was walking.
One morning we took a trip over to North Park Mall. We were going to see Santa, but couldn't see him until the evening so with some time to kill we found a beautiful courtyard and spent some precious moments with Reece and his baby steps. He loved every single part of that day. As did we.

Crawling's still my favorite at the moment.
I'll take some steps in a bit. |
 |
| Modeling. :) |
 |
| Proud of my little walking champ! |
 |
| Playing with grass and leaves. Of course. |
 |
| Step, step, step . . . And he's walking!! |
 |
| Time for some celebratory flying. |
 |
| UP . . . |
 |
| . . . UP . . . |
 |
| . . . UP . . . |
 |
| . . . AND AWAY!! |
 |
| Love this little one. |
 |
| Leaf eating. Yum yum. |
 |
| Walking again! He used the wall a lot for balance. |
 |
| All smiles. |
 |
A big grin. Truly happy about his
accomplishment. Such a big boy now! :)
(And no, he did never let go of that leaf hah.) |
 |
| So proud of my little happy baby. |
And the day ended with smiles. Just as every day should. :)
