Isaac turned 11 months two days ago and it made me realize that I haven’t done an update on here in a really long time! We’ve been pretty good about keeping in touch with Safta\/PopPop and also Ong\/Ba Ngoai, so we haven’t felt the need to super keep everyone in the loop with all of Isaac’s new developments. But for those who do care, here’s a post for you!<\/p>\n
Isaac is walking! Just a few days shy of turning 11 months, Isaac started taking his first steps. We got some of it on video, but he tends to walk most when we’re not expecting it and when he doesn’t see a camera pointing at him. It is just incredible how fast he jumped from standing on his own, and then to walking! I feel like it was only days after we were cheering him for freely standing by himself that he started taking baby steps. So far, he’s able to taking maybe 10-15 steps before landing on his very padded tushy.<\/p>\n
Isaac’s been saying “mamama” and “dadada”. He kind of says it all the time, but when he does want either Dan or myself, he will look at us and will say a very clear, “Dada” or “Mama”. His new thing that we’ve officially decided is not a fluke is that he is able to say bye-bye when someone says good-bye to him. He did it once when we dropped him off at day care on Friday, but we weren’t super sure if it was intentional. Well, today when his Ba Ngoai was saying good-bye to him after hanging out together on Skype, he waved his hand at the camera and said “bah-bah”. And it happened again when his Uncle Buckley was leaving to the market and Isaac heard me say “bye” to him. Isaac immediately started waving from his playpen and said “bah-bah”!<\/p>\n
So very big developments for Month 10, I must say!<\/p>\n
