Baby Speed!

Kyle is so DARN FAST.

Besides the fact that he bolts for everything now. He knows I can not chase him or move as fast as I could before. It seems as I get bigger and slower he is getting stronger and faster...he is a little Speedy Gonzales. He actually tests me now, oh and isn't this cute; he will move his hand just out of my reach if he has something I am trying to grab. "Its not as easy for Mommy to move hahaha."

Not only does he move fast but he is learning fast too! This morning we were in the basement cleaning up. I had to go upstairs to grab a broom. I was literally gone for 30 seconds, and when I return where is Kyle??? That's right on his SECOND step standing up!

He did not crawl up the steps like a typical baby would do, he was trying to WALK up the steps, and was successful. Did I mention he has nowhere to practice this skill? I have had him downstairs maybe 4 times in his life, and the last 3 times were within the last week, and he did not try to conquer the stairs then.

I wish I had a photo of the moment, but my heart was in my brain as I tried to stay calm, so he would not scare and fall backward. This baby would drive me to drink, if I could drink that is =) I knew being a Mom was going to have its challenges, but literally chasing a one year old is exhausting. How am I going to do it with a newborn?!?!?!? At least its great exercise =)
