Well, actually three or four steps. Yep, Dragonfire is on the loose. He has been ambling around with the help of our hands for weeks now. Today I braced him up a few feet from the FP Gal but wouldn't let him hold onto my fingers. She beckoned to him and he shuffled those few steps all on his own. We did this a few times just to check that it wasn't a fluke. For those scoring at home, he still hasn't learned to crawl.
I think that the FP Gal got some video. Of interest, here is the video of Relia's first steps. DF didn't look quite as comfortable walking as she did. I'm sure that'll change. In the words of Mark Twain "Here come the baby gates!*"
Relia's biggest experience with shuffling infants is her cousin Will from when we visited back in October. She keeps talking about how he's 'just like Will!'. It's all pretty cute. Until she rushes over to hug him and knocks him over, then, well, not so cute.
*I may have this quotation wrong.

Congratulations, Felix!!!
He never crawled, though. Straight to the big guns.
