He was pretty distracted by the computer in the beginning of the video, but by the end he was actually walking if you go by the standards Reuben put forth in the comments. (4 steps = walking)

Wisconsin's East Coast

We spent a lot of time the last few weeks exploring the Wisconsin side of the lake. We ended up finding a few decent spots. Below are some of our favorite pictures from these quick trips. 

 We told Avery to look tough for this one. 

 Evie looking shy. 

 Avery's caterpillar.

                                                 Hiking the dunes of Andrea-Kohler State Park

 Dune jumping!

Ashley dialed up some of her long jump skills

 .

 There were extra points for style.

Adeline was not afraid.  

We were happy to find a couple Hoffmaster-esque parks on this side. If anyone wants to camp over here next year let us know!

No More Newlywed :-)

Happy First Anniversary Mattie and Spence!! Have a wonderful day!

So, I need to officially apologize to mom. We came back from a wedding last night and she claimed he had take a couple of steps. I refused to believe her delusional grandparent fantasies. But he has taken multiple steps today multiple times.

So, are we as new parents to consider this walking? Or is this just steps? Katie and I really don't know as this is our first rodeo. Any definitions are appreciated.

And I just need to let the record state that Ben walked at 9 months, but came out of the womb almost a month late. Jack is in his 9th month but was 2 months early.....my son has challenged your title Ben. I welcome your arguments.

Video coming soon.
