Houston, we have a walker!

It's official, I am now considering Jack to be a walker! He's been doing upwards of 10 steps in a row for a few weeks, but last night we had a lovely dinner with our friends A and P and their daughter V and Jack walked completely across their deck and only stopped because the door to the house was shut! He walked about 20 feet! He has definitely been walking a LOT today. Let the fun begin, right?

Sumner said "bye bye" today after I finished videotaping him splashing and laughing in the bathtub. He was extremely lovey all day, giving lots of kisses, and fell off the chair and bumped his head while trying to climb all over it.

Jack has been very protective of an ad with a cat on it...it has a coupon for cat food. He frequently gets it out of the coupon bin and asks David to hold it while he kisses the cat on the paper. It is so silly!

Lastly, Jack amazingly said "are you alright?" to David today. I practically fell over. The old talking Jack is back now that he seems to be getting the hang of this walking thing! David actually came in from the kitchen and we both just stared at Jack because we couldn't believe he said it. I talked in full sentences from a very young age, and it looks like Jack might be following in my footsteps...
