walk-a-lot

Ezekiel's almost walking everywhere now. if he's irritated or mad, he often crawls instead of walking, but he's very good now at standing up without having to pull up on something. he just pushes against the floor with his hands and stands up. it's really cool to see. today we were in the Commissary (grocery store) and Ezekiel was really cranky, so i pulled him out of the cart and let him push the cart while i guided it. when we were ready to leave and we had to stand still and wait in line, Ezekiel got tired of it and just walked to someone elses cart hoping to push that one along instead. it was so funny. the other day Ezekiel followed me from his bedroom, though the hall, the living room, the dining room, to the kitchen, walking all the way. i can't wait til i can trust Ezekiel to walk all the time, even when we're out and about, so i don't have to carry him.
