Ashland hanging out in the park.
He seems to be getting more comfortable waking on grass.
Ashland has been saying a lot more things. He says “cat!” every time he sees one (this was really his first word). He also points and says “This!!” — exactly like the way immi does it! — when he wants something. He also pointed at my knitting project bag and said “cute!” (learned it from immi no doubt). And then when I asked him if he wanted “more” of his dinner, he said “Done!”.
Ashland suddenly got much better at walking. He can also make a turn walking, and bend over to pick stuff up off the floor. He’s still a bit faster crawling though.
Ashland took his first three steps this morning! He was standing at the edge of the entertainment center shelf and he wanted to go over to the gate, so he stepped off took three steps and then power crawled the rest of the way. Won’t be long now until he will be walking and running!
Ashland is mad because he is stuck behind the gate while we get ready to go out for a walk. Check out his new sneakers! It’s his first pair of shoes I got for him that’s actually intended for walking (they have soft but grippy soles). I thought he’ll need them since he is almost walking. In fact, he took 7 steps yesterday, but I’m not counting this as *officially walking* since I don’t think that he knows he actually walked unassisted (he was near the edge of the bed, but let his hands off of it to get to his destination in a hurry).
We stopped by Starbucks during our walk. It’s the first time we are having Starbucks coffee since the first day we moved out to Portland! We haven’t missed it exactly (been busy supporting local coffee houses!) but this is one of 2 easily walking distance coffee place so here we are. Ashland is very pleased with the mini donut he just had.
