Guess who took his first steps this past weekend? At 11 1/2 months Bryce decided he was ready to finally make that move!
Okay, please pardon those obnoxious goggles I’m wearing (and my appearance in general). I just got the LASIK eye surgery the day before (Friday) and those protective goggles are part of my aftercare regimen.
*Date is July 16, 2011 – not January.
What a big boy!! Go Bryce!! I love hearing how proud you guys are. Fun times ahead for sure and I know that Chase is going to enjoy having little brother follow him everywhere. BTW, Yakini- you are so gorgeous that you can rock the goggles anytime! I love hearing daddy saying “My man, My man” Sounds exactly like what Dwayne would say. Thanks for sharing this
Hahaha, thanks for the compliment on the goggles, girl! You are so silly.
Awww, I’ve gotta watch it again. I dont remember Derek saying that, but sounds like something he would. He was so excited and proud – we both were! Tomorrow Im posting the pics/video from shopping for Bryce’s first walking shoes this wknd. Omg, cute!!!!
Go Bryce, go! I can’t believe he’s been here almost a year. I can’t wait until Nas starts walking…he takes steps when we hold him now.
Yes, we are SO excited about this.
And each day he becomes more confident and walks further. Its the cutest sight to see, it really is!
*gasp* @ Nas taking steps!!! Wow!!! Get it Nas!!!
Congrats Bryce!! S was the exact same age when he took his!
Also congrats on the Lasik. I want to hear more.
And most importantly, your DH has the SEXIEST voice EVER. He should do voice-overs…
Hahaha!!! I know!!! Derek has the greatest voice EVER!!!!
Wow, S walked early (to be a “boy” and to be the first baby). Chase didnt walk til a couple weeks after he turned 1.
I will fill you in about the Lasik next time i see you – i LOVE it tho!!!
OMG…. you got lasik?! How neat! And OMG… Bryce is walking! Oh dear…. you guys are in for the time of your lives now. Brace yourself.
LOL @ brace ourselves! Girl, we will! (That sounds so ominous! hahaha)
I really can’t believe he’s almost 1! Time flies way too fast. Anymore babies in your future?
Krissy, same here! Has it already been a year?!! My goodness…
OMG that was too adorable Yakini!! I can’t believe Bryce is almost a year old.. time definitely flies by! Too precious.
Girl, it sure does!!! I cant believe he’s almost a year myself. lol *smh*
lol @ all of the descriptive nicknames u have given bryce in the comments in this post, including slim jim, hahahha!!!! watching first step footage NEVER gets old!! how terribly exciting!!! u cant help beaming with excitement. i love how the fact that since you all are seasoned professional parents at this point, that u never once gasped in concern anytime he toppled down, lololol!!! that’s a mark of a true seasoned parent. yall didnt even bat an eyelash whenever he crumpled weakly to the ground, lol! i cant wait to see him and chase at the end of the summer!! dont let me down!! >:o
i’ll be calling u soon to discuss the deets of ur lasik!!! yaaaay for 20/20 vision!!! booo that it took u so long, smh.
haha it soo doesn’t get old. i’m so obsessed with this vid!! i have to watch it a few times a day to just calm myself and get in a better mood! and you’re right…i let out a small gasp when he toppled head first to the ground at the end LOL but yaki didn’t even flinch. good work!
LOL!!!! I actually kept myself calm intentionally, because if I’d shown a reaction he would have gotten upset and cried too. So by continuing to smile, I didnt let on to him that anything was the matter. So he stayed a trooper!
lmaooo @ crumpled weakly to the floor. Mercy!
Actually its 20/15 now boo. 20/20 vision is for suckaaaaasss!!!
loved it!!
Thanks Aunt Jo!!!!!!!
OMG!! OMG!!! He’s so little and so cute and so determined!! my youngest gchild is walking!! LOL….; so happy you got it on camera== Priceless!!!!
I know!!! Im so glad Derek thought to go for the camcorder. These are definitely priceless memories!!
How precious! It seems like just yesterday he was the tiny little bean you were holding at that Zumba event and now he’s walking! Congratulations
Awwww man, i know Patty!!! Can you believe that it’s been a full year since then?! The time goes by so quickly.
Good lord, time is flying isnt it? Do love those glasses? I remember those.
LOL!!!! Linda, did you have LASIK?!! I didnt know! We will chat!
Its so cute watching him wobble. Such a handsome little boy
Im laughing at him clapping for himself adorable!
Let us know when he makes his trip to the Keds store.
lol, i know dele…. i was cracking up when he started clapping on his own.
and yes, that little baby wobble is sooo cute. and bryce is so slim/little, he reminds me of a young colt learning to walk.
oh cute little wobble legs!
Hehehe! Thanks lady!
I love how they wobble like that at first!
Oh, so sweet. Such a great milestone. Now he can start getting into even more. My 15 month old loves the stairs. Too much.
Omg, the stairs! That will be hysterical when he gets into those.
awwww yay bryce!! he looks soo cute, all happy grinning while he walks to you lol. he knows something exciting is going on. lol @ derek saying “january” with conviction like that. ahh i can’t believe this…they grow up so fast
I know – he looked SO happy and proud, didnt he?!! And they do grow up fast!!!
So cute!!!!!! I loved when they walk like ET. So cute!

WOW!! Walking so early! Congratulations little man – next goal – RUNNING! LOL
Hehehe! That is going to be hysterical, when he starts running!
Congrats to him! Now begins the getting into everything stage. If its not already here.
