Austin just took 3 steps for Al this morning. I thought I still had time, but I'm thinking I was wrong. He's not going to be running yet by any means, because he takes one step, wobbles, stops, then takes another. I'm excited and don't get me wrong here, but I thought I would have one more summer without him taking off on me while camping. lol. Very Happy

( maybe his shoes will slow him down also... Wink

)

Awww, that is so great! Even with all the uncomfortable medical stuff that is going on, he still doing so well. Kallen's physio once said that we should get him a reason to want to move- so I bet Austin's brother's and sisters gave him lots and lots of motivation. Way to go Austin!!!

Yay Austin! That's so exciting! And maybe that's why he's walking, he knows the fun times are about to begin and doesn't wanna miss out!

Woo-Hoo! Go, Austin!
I think Isaac's right behind you... yesterday he went from standing at the dishwasher, turned and took one step to the drawer he wanted to get into.
