Let me explain the bruises...

So with the new walking comes the falling. At first it was really unsteady walking that resulted in him catapulting into the nearest object. If that object was hard, or there was no object and he hit the floor it could result in a bruised nogin. He has had several bruises on his forehead over the last week. I now ask him what happens when he goes "bonk" and he will hit his head with his hand. I swear I don't beat the kid. He's been banned from the bathroom because the tub and toilet are just way to close to the walking path and the tile is way too slippery. The good news is he is getting better and better every day! Much less falling now. I take him outside often with his walking truck and he cruises all over. I think the practice is helping! It is so cool to see him walk though. You can tell by the look on his face he thinks he is so big now.
