Children's Museum Workout

Daddy and I met Tommy and his mommy (whoa... that rhymes) at the Children's Museum this afternoon. It was fun seeing my buddy again. You know, swapping stories about Christmas, seeing who got what and all that.

Anyway, as I mentioned before I've been working at walking a lot lately. In fact, I have woken up early the last two days so I could get practicing. It's funny, Daddy keeps working with me on my walking, but when I want to get up at six to practice, he doesn't want to.

Well, I realized today that the best place to work on walking is the Children's Museum. Not only is the padded floor in the wiggle room perfect for the inevitable falls, but having an audience makes you work that much harder. Daddy and I criss-crossed the Wiggle Room over and over - me holding his fingers but stepping on my own.

But it didn't stop there. The fear of failure in front of my peers even drove me to stand on my own. First for five seconds, then later for ten, then next for even more than that.

We gotta get back there soon so I can work on that first step. Of course, you can't work on staying vertical the WHOLE time you are there.
