Taking Off

Marcus is taking off! All of a sudden he has decided that when standing up and holding on to someone's hands, it is a favorable thing to start moving his legs. It just started one day, on his birthday, he kinda started toddling forwards. The next day he was running while holding on to us! The novelty wore off quickly though. He still enjoys the activity but now it is more enjoyable if he takes a few steps and then looks around everywhere. Then he takes a few more steps. I am in no hurry for him to be running around on his own. He has his biweekly cold again (and I have a touch of it as well, thankfully so far I have avoided getting the full-blown thing) and it is much easier to catch him and wipe his nose when he isn't running!
