Jake's first steps!

We can't believe it, but Jake is actually taking his first steps! Within the past few days, Jake has really started walking all on his own, and we are so proud of him! All of the sudden he just seemed to get his balance a little better and now it looks like we have a walker on our hands. He still prefers to crawl because it's faster, but if we bribe him he'll walk. He is still pretty wobbly, but walking nonetheless! Here is a video of his first steps.

Congrats Jake!! Good job!
