He took 2 steps!

Yep! Cohen took 2 steps! He has become braver and braver the last few days and is no longer scared to stand alone..in fact, he thinks it's funny when he lets go. Saturday night, we were having dinner for Chris' birthday and Cohen was standing on the booth when he took 2 steps towards Chris! He hasn't done it since but he is standing for longer an longer so it won't be long now. He is still trying to reach for something to grab onto before he moves his feet. I'll keep you updated :-)

An update on Braedon: He is doing much better with the new sticker reward system had 2 out of 3 days on green and one yellow. We talked to him about this week and told him we would like to see him on green everyday this week. He agreed but then said he wanted on purple! I think this may have something to do with Megan (his "girlfriend). She is a few months older than Braedon so she was able to start K last year and has been in 1st grade for a couple weeks longer. At dinner on Saturday, we started talking about school. In K, her school used a number system 1-4 with 4 being an excellent day; in 1st grade, they are using a color system and she told Braedon that she is always on purple and asked what color he is on. When he told her "sometimes yellow and orange", she asked him why he isn't good in school, etc. Maybe she will have an influence on him that no one else seems to have had yet. I let his teacher know that his goal is purple this week and she was really excited. Only time will tell!
