Kyle standing

We keep waiting for Kyle to decide he's ready to walk.  We've had very few indications so far.  Last night, Wendy decided to do some somersaults.  Kyle wanted to try it too.  So, Chris helped him get on his feet and put his head on the ground and then flipped him over.  Kyle was determined to do it by himself.  But, in order to do that, he needed to figure out the whole standing by himself thing.  He would not accept help from us and just kept trying until he could stand up by himself from sitting position.  Then he worked on getting his head on the floor so he could do a somersault.  We have to flip him for the somersault, but he gets ready for us and waits....or flips to the side.  He probably stood up 30 times last night.  We got pretty excited about it, so he just kept going.

Today, he stands up like he's been doing it his whole life.  He has taken 3 or 4 steps before diving into my arms.  Then he tries again.  In case you can't tell, he is HEAVY! We are thrilled that he has an interest in walking by himself.
