Connor puts on a show at Daddy’s office
Victoria and Connor came up to my office today so we could go to lunch. The gang at the office got to see Connor for the first time in a couple of months.
I was a “proud papa” because Connor decided to put on a little show for everyone.
Show #1:
First thing he did even impressed me! I was squatting down on the floor with Connor with a crowd of about 4-5 people watching us. Connor started to play with my badge that hangs around my neck. Connor had both hands on the badge and was standing on his own. He did this for a good 30-40 seconds which broke all the records he had previously (3-6 seconds of standing on his own). I was so impressed and kept telling everyone that this was the first time he had stood for such a long period of time.
Show #2:
A few minutes later, we moved inside my office so Uncle Tony could get a glimpse of Connor as well. Connor was standing and holding on to my partition wall and then he let go of the wall and stood on his own. He decided he wanted to take a step toward Uncle Tony and Ms. Tammy. He lifted his left foot up and took a step in there direction. That was the first time he actually took a step. Yes, he fell forward as he started to plant that left foot, but that was a beginning.
Of course I called Grandma on our way to lunch to tell her and she said that was officially his first step saying, “that is how most kids take their first step”.
