Drum roll please....

As you know, Ervin's new game is pushing chairs around in the kitchen. He also loves pushing his hippo toy around the living room, correctly and also with the hippo upside down. He's also been standing very well on his own without support for a while. But today, he did the amazing.

While my visiting teachers were here today giving a message, the kids were playing in Lizzy's room. Ervin was in the hall, standing with his hands against the wall, whining for mommy to come get him. I went to him and asked if he wanted to play with the girls in Lizzy's room or come with mommy to the living room. He decided he wanted to come with mommy, so I reached my hands out to him. Normally, he drops to the floor and crawls to me, or stands there holding out his arms and waits for me to come to him. Not today. He took 3 or 4 shaky baby steps into my open arms!! Hooray for Ervin! Hopefully this isn't a one time deal and he will do it again soon and not wait a long time to do it again!
