All By Himself On A Single Step
Look at what Matthew has been able to do recently! He can walk up and down a single 5-inch high step all by himself - a demonstration of good motor control, coordination, leg strength, and balance. He usually needs me to hold one or both of his hands to navigate a step. He surprised me as I was taking photos one afternoon and I managed to capture the moment through my lens.

Way to go Matthew!! Colin sends a high 5 your way! That's so exiting!
WTG Matthew! I know this is a big accomplishment. We're working on steps with Caleb as well. Go Matthew!
super awesome! Hes just growing by leaps and bounds. Go Matthew!
Awesome, Matthew! We're working on that with JM, too. Down is so much harder than up.
Love the pictures! I need to be better about carrying my camera everywhere so I don't miss things.
oh that's wonderful and such a big accomplishment! Going up and down steps by yourself is a hard thing to do when you think of all the muscles and control that is involved!
Woo Hoo! That's awesome!
