It has been awhile since I have posted anything on here... Life has been SO busy! But I have a HUGE brag for Kole. He is finally feeding himself!!!! Finger food, with a fork everything!!! This is a huge improvement from Sunday because before then he would pick up food and just throw it down. And now he will eat full meals on his own!!!! Very exciting for us! He is also very very close to walking, he can take a few steps going back and forth to his dad and I and last night he stood up in the middle of the room and took about 5 steps before falling!!!! He is doing so good I couldnt be happier!!! Just had to share

That is awesome! I can't believe he uses a fork! Kyle still holds it in one hand while he shovels food in his mouth with the other Smile

. And walking too... We are still working on standing. Go Kole!!!
