Box Walk

As I mentioned before, Ashton can now get into just about any cupboard or drawer in the house. Since we're moving pretty soon, we didn't want to put all of those child-proofing things in just so we could take them out a few weeks later. So instead, we've been blocking things off with chairs, gates, and giant empty diaper boxes. Well, one day Ashton learned how to push the boxes out of the way. Great. As he was pushing one out of the way, it just kept going, and he kept going with it. He ended up walking all the way across the room, and he thought it was awesome. He did it over and over again for the whole rest of the day.

Before this, Ashton would only take two or three steps at a time and sit down, or just walk hanging on to the furniture. After this he decided to go for it, and now he walks great. It's been hard to get on camera though, cause he gets too excited that my phone is out and falls down, but I'll get it and post it some day. :)

Mara! Your comment made me so happy! I'm DYING to see Audra at Hale this summer! Tickets are pricey, though. My manager (did you know Ben Hess) is actually performing with her. Rad. And YES we are going to see BSM this fall! Hooray!
