Boy Wonder Walks...

Boy Wonder (aka Levi Matthew Best) is now walking. He has been taking steps since the end of October when the bros were in town....at 9 MONTHS OLD! And, I was reluctant to write anything b/c I was sure no one would believe me....but now, at a young 9 1/2 months, our little Hulk is walking....I mean, REALLY WALKING!

He can walk, turn around, stop and restart, bend over and pick something up and keep going....and, as of yesterday (although Tim says this has been going on longer), he can stand up and begin walking unassisted. It is his favorite mode of transportation now...and you really have to see it to believe it!! Mr. Levi is quite proud of accomplishment...as you can see by the look on his face!

See for yourself. I will get better video of this, but I am so busy chasing after him that I keep forgetting...plus, I think I have been in denial...my baby is too little to walk.

And, not only does this happy child walk, he falls asleep on his own, sleeps through the night (YES!), eats (& throws) pretty much anything like a champion, hams it up for the camera, and has the most wonderful squeal of delight that I have ever heard....I LOVE THIS BOY...and am so thankful that I couldn't find the receipt to return him when he was in, what we now lovingly refer to as, his 'freak out stage'!!!

And, before I appear biased in any way, I LOVE, LOVE my big boy Mason, our resident puzzle pro, CARS fanatic, lover, fighter, inquisitive, sharp 1st born. It is truly remarkable how two children with the same mother and father can be so drastically different and it is even more remarkable how the Lord just pumps your heart full with LOVE to the point that your pretty sure it will burst with the mere thought of them!

Our boys...gush, gush, sigh, sigh....God's perfect provision for us....may we love them well!
