Well, it has been some time and our little Yedidiya is growing into a big boy. He now weighs in at 24 pounds, but he has thinned out some as he grows. He does so many cute little things that we have taught him, like 'so big', which he has done almost since we got him. He can now give you five, blow kisses, wave bye-bye, give loves (hug), and even whistle a little bit. He has also become quite the little chatter box. While 'da-da' did come first, it has now been replaced with 'ma-ma' and used by the hundreds.
Our biggest news is on the walking front. He has been trying to take steps for a while now, and when he goes between things or hangs on to something he has been great. But get him away from support, and boom! His balance is lacking a little bit, but his biggest problem is that he tries to go way too fast. Well, he showed today that he is well on his way to overcoming that. On two or three separtate occassions today, Yiah took 5 to 7 steps without any support!!! And even after one of those times, he stopped a just stood there for 5 seconds afterwards! It was joyous and scary. How are we going to keep up with him now?
Anyway, things here are still going great. He has been with us over 4 months now and he is the happiest little guy I have ever met. We are just loving being parents. I am getting ready to spend the summer with him now that school is out, so I will try to do better on the updates. For now, I thought I would just throw out some newer pictures!
