Slow Down, Kid

Less than a month ago my eight-month-old son Jack could barely roll over. Well, at the rate he's progressing he'll be participating in the 2008 Olympics. Last Sunday, July 12, he decided he would conquer the stairs. He had been pulling himself up to a standing position for a couple of weeks. His favorite place to practice his new trick was on the bottom stair of our staircase. On Sunday he simply pulled himself up onto the next step...except he didn't stop. He went all the way to the top. Of course, he gets his drive and ambition from me.
