Harrison started walking today, exactly a month after his first steps on May 24! His motivation was getting to the radio. He took 3 or 4 steps and then repeated that about 5 or 6 more times this morning. Its so exciting! Especially since I was in the other room when he took his first steps (it crushed me). He giggles when he walks. He thinks its great fun. I am so happy!!!

Speaking of the radio, I don't know if I have mentioned on earlier blogs, but Harrison LOVES music. He dances when we say dance. He dances to music from commericals on TV, dances in the car, he'll bob his head to any beat he hears. And he has AMAZING rhythm, which Adam insists must come from him and not me! He loves all his musical toys. When I put him in his car seat, he immediately starts smiling and bobbing his head, because he knows the music is about to come on. I can't wait to start piano lessons in a few years! I think he will love it. His great-grandfather was a beautiful piano player, playing by ear. And his great-grandmother played cello in a symphony. Maybe he will follow in their footsteps! They have passed on but I know they would have just ADORED Harrison. His Granna plays piano and I play a mean chopsticks - ha! Of course if Harrison hates piano, thats ok with me. But I want to expose him to lots of different things so he can discover what he loves!
