We're starting to walk!

Of course I have no video because he only does it when I'm not paying attention.  When we get video, I will upload.  Joshua has walked across his room several times now.  He tries to walk every now and then in other parts of the house, but he is still pretty unsteady, so he plops down. It's funny because when we're in the kitchen and he takes a few steps to the middle of the room, he stops, smiles and claps for himself very quietly.  Too cute. :)
    In other random news, he now knows the sign for 'all gone'.  Whenever we're done eating, he gives me sign, or if he is done with what is in his mouth and wants more, he gives the sign.  He has also taken to hiding when he goes #2 in his diaper.  He gets really quiet, and then he crawls really quickly to wherever he thinks is a hiding spot.  It's usually under the kitchen table, under one of our side tables, or the corner of the room. I read that this is a sign of possible potty training readiness.  Is that really true?  I'm eager to get out of diapers, but this seems pretty early...opinions, anyone?

Congratulations on the walking. How fun!
As for the potty training. I've heard that to be a sign too - of course, it didn't mean squat for my kid, but yours may be different. :)

Congrats on the walking!! Going outside gets so much easier now. I wouldn't attmept potty-training for a long time. Don't start too young because it'll just take longer and frustrate both of you. But that's just my opinion! :)
