The boys didn’t really crawl and they weren’t going anywhere on all fours. They sat on the floor and pushed themselves forward with one leg underneath them and hands for balance. Very funny, but I just let them get on with it and never pushed them to do anything else.
It was delightful, when the boys discovered their legs. The happiness etched on their faces when they made the first steps, realising that, they discovered a whole new world. So very exciting and there was no stopping them.
Leo’s first steps were at 15 months. It happened in a coffee bar, when he suddenly slid off his pushchair and almost ran after friend’s cocker spaniel.
Raph went a step further at 13 months. We were having a Sunday roast pub lunch with grandparents, when he got off his chair and walked straight out the front door.
Speechless is not the word!
