Nate Walks!

Today Nate took his first steps without his walker! We tried to get pictures, but by the time we thought of it he was pretty worn out from us making him do it over and over again to show everyone in the house!

Nathan started working with a specialist to help him walk and crawl right before he turned a year old. After a few months we switched specialists and started taking Nathan up to the Primary Children's Rehab Center in Bountiful. They are so great with Nathan! Nate is also in speech therapy there, so we drove up twice a week for a year. In December at Nate's progress review he met all of his goals for the year, which included cruising and crawling, and walking with his walker. Nate's new goals are to stand confidently without his walker and take some steps without his walker in the next six months. I think we are on our way!
