Sunday Snapshot - {First Steps}

It has been a very busy week but although we have celebrated many firsts and birthdays - Cav's new legs and his very first steps EVER has been the highlight!

Very photo heavy but it was a pretty incredible day!



I think I love this photo the best -
The pure innocence as
 Cav checks out his new leg, 
& first pair of shoes EVER!



Daddy got light up shoes - we thought he MIGHT need an incentive - we were wrong LOL!



Another favorite - waiting!


I can do it!

Momma, you see!


See Momma!


Other side





SO excited he is up!


Stand up straight big guy!





AS you saw in the videos in my last post, I quickly realized the camera needed to be put away and the video used instead - our boy waited his whole life for this, and he was off!


We had to go over to Children's after to x-ray and see our favorite Dr.  Just a slight adjustment needed

BUT Cav was tall enough to play with the busy beads and he was so thrilled with himself!



We still have to learn how to sit and get up!
