Our first new start to report is that Porter is walking. He started last Wednesday, Just 2 weeks after his first birthday. He took a couple of steps on his own during the day and then that night we practiced with him going back and forth between Terry and I. I am sure that his legs felt like noodles by the end of the night. He would hardly even stand and so we decided to call it quits. Since then everyone who played with him thought they were the first to discover his new talent. I am happy to say that I saw it first. I thought for sure that he was going to wait until I was gone to try and walk but he didn't. It has been just so funny to see such a little guy walking around.
Another new start for us is the planting of our little garden. We consider it a garden, but really it is just a few potted plants. We planted tomatoes, beans, cucumbers, and zucchini. I planted them a few weeks ago and was very surprised to see that they even grew. They are now about 5 inches tall and growing great! Porter loves to play in the dirt and he eventually will take a taste. He doesn't like it though and will not try it again until another day in which he has forgotten that he already tasted it.

Horray for Porter!!!!! I am so excited you got to see it. It is a wonderful moment. He did such a good job. So many more things to come. You will love every minute of it.
Go Porter! He looks so cute and small walking around! I can't wait to get together with you guys. On mapquest it says that you are about 2 and a half hours from our place. We are going to be in Northern Kentucky (just south of Cincinnati).
Loved the video!
What a big boy! So fun for all of you! Oh- and good job being a good little homemaker and planting a garden! That will be so fun to eat fresh veggies from!
We planted a "pot garden" one year. We had carrots and I was so excited until Acadia shoved the porch door open and knocked the whole pot to the ground, carrots and all. Hopefully you have better luck than we did!
