My son has started to walk!
Our 10 month old, having taken his first steps just days shy of the 10 month mark, is now just about an officual 'walker'. He'll try walking to get places before falling back (or down, as it were) to crawling. His older brother walked at 10 months too, good to see the little guy is keeping up :)

Infants taking their first steps has to be one the absolute cutest things in the world.

2. You should
string trip-lines around the house. They're close to the ground and don't get hurt, and physical comedy is always appreciated.

3. Not needed
Our 3 year old' collection of THomas THe Train trains works quite well for that purpose...

4. lol
well congrats on having a second disaster-in-waiting running around your house.

I had a nephew who miraculously survived his childhood. You could put this kid in a room full of toys, and he'd immediately find the first pointy metal object and head straight toward the electrical outlets. If it was sharp, toxic, electrified or could bite, it's all he was interested in.

7. I tell them to slow down....
But they refuse to do so. I told my 3 year old he could stay 3 for a couple of years and I wouldn't mind. He replied he wants to be big so that he can reach the ceiling just like Daddy :D
