They grow up so fast

It seemed like yesterday that Eli couldn't even crawl forward yet, and now he is standing up on his own. It was only one week ago today that he first stood on his own for more than a second or two. Now, after just a week of standing up all over the place, he took his first steps today. The first two times, he only took two steps (one left, one right) before falling, but later he got 4-5 steps in between dad and mom. It only happened a couple of times, so we don't have video yet, but if he progresses as quickly as he did with crawling, pulling up, and standing, he'll be walking all over the place within a week and we should be able to get some video. For now, you'll have to be content with pictures of Eli standing up from this week.

Like everything else in Eli's world, food is the best incentive to produce results.
