Tickle Time and the big FOUR STEPS!!

After we had put Linc down in his crib, we realized that he was not quite ready for bed. We brought him down for a little play time. Dave loves to wrestle, tickle, and just play with Linc and Linc has no objection to it! I think the bean bag is their favorite place to play. Linc is climbing all over the bean bag now and has realized that the can use it to his advantage to get to places he could not before, like the couch. He is a brave little guy, sometimes too brave. He dives off of the bean bag to get off of it, luckily he has not gotten hurt. He actually hasn't had any bumps or bruises that I can think of. He is one tough cookie. I have to apologize for the dark video, we don't have a ceiling light in our living room, just a lamp.
These two videos are actually right before Linc decided to take those amazing first 4 steps. We tried to get video of him trying to walk, but the playing had gotten him all tired out he just kept lunging towards me and then crying. So unfortunately, we didn't get good footage of him...we are trying though.
For a quick recap of how those steps went:
I was holding him at arms length and letting him go so he could stand and then saying come her Linc...he would take a step or two and then lunge forward. Dave came and joined in the fun and after quite a few times of the 1-2 steps he took 3!! We were so amazed we did it again and the was when he took 4 steps!! Dave went to get the video camera and then that is when Linc became tired and cranky and did not want to perform. Dave was really happy that he was able to take part in Linc's first steps. It was a wonderful family moment.
