Kid's corner

This weekend Nathan took four steps all by himself, without any means of support. After that, it turned out to be faster when going down to all fours :-)

He also got new shoes, as the old ones were clearly too small. Two sizes too small.

The last weeks, Nathan has steadily increased the times he tries to walk around. He is mostly still holding on to his surroundings, but he does manage to stand up all by himself. The first step following that ... not quite yet. But when a man cannot walk, he can surely climb. He can get up the staircase all by himself (with either me or Veerle standing behind him, just in case). And today he demonstrated why it is not a good idea to leave Elias' (small) chair in the vicinity of the table. Clearly, if the table it too high to climb onto, one needs to use the object in the middle: the chair.

I have not been updating this blog for a while now, due to a lack of time while I'm finishing my PhD. Yet a lot has happened in the past weeks.
