We have a walker

 10 months and he is off.

So Layton has always been strong on this legs, he was standing and cruises round furniture for months. He would stand up before he could even crawl or sit unaided. 

We knew he would walk early like his sister but not sure we were ready for this. He was taking few steps between furniture or would walking holding one hand since 8 months. But ones he started crawling he knew he could get where he wanted faster. He was still yet to fully stand unaided but started trying to let go of things and walk/run but would then fall after a few steps. As he didn't have the balance yet. But at 9 months he was taking few more steps before lowering to crawl.

So on Tuesday 6th only 10 months and a week. He stood himself upright in the middle of the garden, and was then starting to let go of things and stand for longer amount of time. Then come Wednesday. I took him to a baby group where I stood him up to put bags away and he just walked off, just like that!! He then walked round the whole hour and hasn't not stopped since. It is like ones he got his balance to stand he was off.  Just in 2 days he went from taking steps to fully walking. 

Now at 11 months he nearly crawls, he walks and runs and climbs. He hardly falls now and if he does he jumps straight back up. He seems like a toddler already it's crazy how fast he went from not standing to walking, running and everything in just a few days. 

Since he started walking, he also climbs everything so we had to move the furniture around, take the side off his cot and put a bed guard up because he was starting to pull self up. Also he was banging against it and getting limbs stuck and therefore waking himself or us up in the night. He also follows instructions now like this way or come here or go get ball ect.... 

And he is talking loads. I will do more in his 11 month development post so keep reading and seeing what he been achieving. As well as adventure we been up to this summer.
