Alfie has come a long way recently, he is walking around the furniture with ease – he is really quite quick now so really keeping us on our toes! Also he can pull himself up which can be a little hairy to watch as he looks a little bit like Bambi on the ice, but he amazes us how he can now problem solve and work out how to get himself up and steadied.

Whilst browsing online I came across this cool contraption called a moon walker – it’s really just the groin and straps of a door bouncer but allows you to help the child to walk in a more natural position, i.e with their hands free to grab and examine area around them.

Both Michael and I are pretty sure that we will have a walking post in the near future if Alfie continues at the rate he is now. Really exciting, but neither of us can believe just how quickly it has come.
