I was going to NOT do any more "chair" photos each month. However, awhile back, a good friend of mine, Karen (who is a Grandma), suggested that I keep going until age 2 because they still change so much each month.
So, I'm going to take her suggestion :)
Here's Luke exactly one year ago today....

And, here's Luke now -- of course, with his blanket (a.k.a. his "bwankie") -- you know, the thing we wouldn't go anywhere without.

And, to answer everybody's question -- Luke is NOT walking yet. He's nowhere near there yet. My mom has told me that I didn't walk until 15 months, and I think Luke is somewhat taking after me in that arena. It sometimes is frustrating because other children is age are walking. Children younger than him are walking already.
But, I know, I know -- children develop at their own pace. He will get there.
I just had kind of a frustrating week regarding gross motor skills. But, I won't put all of that on this blog.
Instead, I will tell all of you in "blogger" world that Luke is wonderful. We love him so much! We're very thankful to God for him each and every day. We pray that he grows up to love God first and to be a Godly man.

Luke is a beautiful boy. You're absolutely right, he will get there, but yu know I understand the frustration!!
BTW, they say the average baby walkes at 14 months and often a bit later for boys. Most people think it a year, but it's not!
I remember being frustrated because my boy wouldn't crawl. In fact, he didn't do a lot of that at all. He walked first at 10 months. Then added crawling. Each child is so different. Luke is expanding his brain power and concentrating on other things. The walking (and running away from you) will come soon!
We love you, Lukers! Happy 13-month anniversary! :-)
Lawson was 15 months old before he started to walk. It was during the summer and I was so frustrated, too, thinking "being outside with you would be much more fun if you would just walk already!" Sophie was 10 months old when she walked, so I thought he would never get there! Soon enough... then he'll be running! :) Hang in there!
