I had a few requests for pics of the lil' man attempting to use his Walking Wings. They were sent to me by the lovely Lotus and are guaranteed to save my poor back when Amos really is ready to get a move on. I realize that Amos is a bit young for the wings o' walking, but he loves to be bounced and moved around at his ripe old age of 4 months. I have an occasional bad back situation, and the thought of being hunched over while letting Amos hold my fingers and stumble around is just frightening. Ha. So, I present to you the alternative:
(Apologies for showing Phil's feet over and over - not that they're awful feet, but uh, you know, they're feet.)
Amos and Daddy try out the Walking Wings. Steady... steady...
Amos demonstrates "the sway" and "lean back" maneuvers so popular with the rappers.
Amos doesn't walk so much as just lean and then pull us forward so that we must bounce him to his destination.
"Please, Daddy. Be a sport and bounce me over yonder to the cat. She has fur I must pull."
"Are we done yet? Now? Huh? How about when my dignity has left me?"

just adorable (sniffle)
Hey, those are some of the best pictures of my feet ever! But in the future, I'll wear footy jammies like Amos so as not to offend the delicate sensibilities of foot haters.
Oh MY. That baby is darn cute.
-HH
Judy - Thank ya! He misses you, as does his Mama.
Phil "clip your toe fangs" - I think the world would appreciate it if you covered up those monkey toes.
Heidi Hyde - Thanks! He enchants me every day with his shenanigans.
(You have a lovely onion.)
The look on his face in the last one is priceless. It's the baby version of "Baroo?"
He's getting cuter, but you knew that already. If I was Phil I would be less worried about the foot haters and more worried about the feet lovers.
I think I need some of those walking wings. Maybe it would encourage Amy to actually walk. Although we are getting closer.
Your little boy has the cutest little face and your husband has a fine set of feet. lol
I'm glad you're getting to use that contraption! I really wanted to get it to you right away so you could go ahead and play with it.
He's the cutest Wing Walker ever. ;-)
Those are really cute shots. Neat concept. Although from experience, are you so sure you want Amos walking sooner than he really has too? Because he'll be RUNNING the minute he figures out walking... and then you'll be in big trouble :)
Awww, love that last picture! I'll have to tell my sister in law to get my nephew a pair of those.
won't be long and he'll be walking for real, That rapper sway is coming along just great !!
DAMN
Wish I knew that was invented!
Amos is just precious
Hayden has the same onesie, but not the same capability of standing with wings. Amos is too cute and growing fast!
If we had your little Amos and my little Katie together, it would be a pinching o the cheeks fest.
The sway and lean back pose is so cool.
bipolarlawyercook - It's a challenge to type your name. Ha. Anyhoo... what is "Baroo?" I'm stumped.
Veronica - Phil is always worried about the foot lovers. He has extra long toes that would surely woo them.
Angie H - You are too kind! I told Phil about your comment, and he yelled, "SEE?!"
Lotus - Anything that keeps Amos upright and chasing the cat is the best thing ever invented. Haha. You rock.
Karen Meg - You have a good point. Last night, he was trying to get his legs under him during tummy time, like he was going to crawl. Argh!
Sara - Yes! Spread the word about the wonders of Walking Wings!
Gareth - He knows how to sway with the best of 'em!
Moxie Mom - You are swell! These newfangled baby inventions are CRAZY.
Wildflower - Hayden is only 2 months. He's lucky if he can hold his head up during tummy time. Haha. Give him time!
Kim and/or Todd - Yup. Amos is all cheeks. I think those are Porter cheeks.
Stephen - Put your hands in the air like you don't care, then lean back...
