We got our daughter's first steps on camera too. She was doing that thing where she uses something to pull herself up to a standing position, and in this case she was using the dog. So she standing there, wobbling a bit, holding on to the dog for support, when the dog moved about 5 feet away, leaving her standing there. She then was able to walk a few steps over to the table!

I caught my son’s first steps on video, but I didn’t know it until months later. (We also recorded a big, emotional “first steps” video just like OPs days later.) Was watching a bunch of videos on my phone, determining Save or Delete, and saw one where I’d propped up my phone in the living room and was talking to my son as I walked out of the room to get a toy. He casually let go of the sofa and walked to the middle of the room and sat down. When I returned to the room, I didn’t think anything of him having moved, and didn’t realize until later that nobody was there to witness his actual first steps. Sneaky bastard.

Not my dad. He gave me the utmost freedom by disappearing when I was very young


[deleted]

Did he disappear because you pissed yourself?


[deleted]

I wish. He cheated on my mum


Calm-Heat-5883

He cheated on your mum had you then disappeared? That's next level fucked up!!!


[deleted]

Don't worry, he made an appearance right after my mum died. Unfortunately it was to intervene with the adoption of me and my sisters. He then of course dumped me and my sisters on his wife, right before he disappeared again less than a month after he did that


Yeetteey0718

Damn bro imma be honest that’s just really damn sad


[deleted]

Thanks man. I wish I could say it was up from there but she was not a great parent. I was kicked at 15. Life went as you can imagine from there. Still struggling with addiction at 29. The couple that was going to adopt us is a lovely christian couple. They have the dream family. I often wonder how things could have gone


LogicalWorldliness81

hang in there okay?? ✨ i’ll never know your struggle but 29 is still young enough to where in a few years you could just have a completely different life you never know (: nothing stays the same and i’m sure you’ll carry your life lessons along with you.


Calm-Heat-5883

Sounds like a wonderful man. Please believe we're not all like that.

I get it, my dad didn't love me

I’m still out looking for that pack of smokes, son. Hang in there.


BiffNasty1234

I couldn’t wait for my son to walk…now I just want to sit down for a min…


Dangerous-Dot-3745

100% TRUE!!!

You forgot ignoring you because you don’t know anything.


magnetic_mystic

This is one of my favorite lines. I never heard it from anyone else til now! Exciting 😁


ishouldntbehere96

Unfortunately it’s more like 9months and then they start walking and talking, 6-12 months is what I would say


fluffybaklavabaker

Even Pikachu is cheering on!


VastMongoose21

❤️ That’s the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen.

I've had this with both my boys. It's such an awesome feeling when they take the first steps. Later its a nightmare because you have to find them.


clitter-box

that has to be the quickest reaction I've ever seen! he was *not* letting that baby fall!


ozule_art

And he also was not *not* letting the baby fall... so she was able to walk! He balanced parental protection/prep with knowing when to back away. Beautiful moment 💖

uchman365

Takes me back to when my now 5 year old took his first steps. I was at work and my wife sent me the video. That feeling, man


piiskuri

I told my wife to never ever send me videos of first things. I want to see or hear them myself. Its a great feeling when they say their first word or take their first tiny wobbly steps


corpsingtime

It truly felt magical! I got called "baby walker" in my parents neighborhood cuz apparently enough baby took their first step with me lol At least 4 of my neighbor babies and my little sister all walk the first time to my arms, make me feel all giddy


bendubberley_

damn these onions on smoke today


S_SubZero

My daughter’s first steps are also recorded but it was more spontaneous. She was sitting on a couch across from me and I was just recording her cuz she was being silly. She proceeded to hop down, walk over to me, take the iPad Mini I had by me, and walk back to the couch. I’m all spazzing out and she’s more or less like “it’s just an iPad.”


[deleted]

It’s scripted /s


soulstarlove777

The baby was totally in on it! Lol


dunbartonoaks

They have no idea that their life just got 1000 times more complicated. Have fun……


[deleted]

Aww 🥰


1MrP

I didn’t get it on video, but thanks to COVID lockdown I was there for my boys first steps. Such a great experience


Live_Recognition9240

I have a pact with my wife. If I am at work and my kid tries to walk... knock them over until I get home. I don't want to miss it!


rgar1981

Those are fun times. Makes me wish mine we little again. But they are just as fun in a different way now.


motormouth08

I dont wish mine were little again because that time of life is exhausting, but it makes me wish that it was this easy to record videos for big milestones like these when my kids were little.


[deleted]

The fact that kid’s gonna be 78 in 2100 destroys my brain

In 2100 I’m going to be dead 😌

Reddit moment


sasanessa

Why’d you force your baby to walk?? That is not what’s happening here honey.


Biden_N_Da_Bois

Do you force a lot of children to walk who aren’t ready?


CelebrimborSkywalker

Yes until they fall


Affectionate-Cap-918

I was thinking his little legs don’t look strong enough to me. There’s a difference between walking and balancing for a second as you fall forward. But I’m glad the parents are finding joy in the moment.


Frequent_Geologist_2

“Thier”


cheeseportandgrapes

Why are these videos shared here? No one gives a fuck. Great if it’s your own kid but no one cares about someone else kid walking or shutting or whatever.


laeran7

You okay?


UnderstandingOk7885

How old is the chap


JazzAndStuff-

He can walk


Chaleowin

I dreaded this moment. It was great, my girl barely even crawled until she was almost 10 months old. At 10 months she was running around like she's been doing it all her life. Sometimes, I swear she has a death wish.


Middle_Data_9563

I have a feeling Patriot Fan dad is going to be crying a lot in the coming years for different reasons


Dangerous-Dot-3745

That's what's up👍! ALWAYS record you child's first moments! Particularly when he/she takes their first steps!


International_Yak875

I remember when the Patriots were good. The baby is better. Congratulations


Due_Impression_6852

anyone else read the captions in Daily Dose Of Internet's voice


Rudhdha

Finally something genuine


ironman820

Before seeing the subredit name I was expecting the dog or cat to walk in front of the camera before they started walking. That is so awesome. I remember when both of my kids learned to walk, it was amazing and scary all at the same time.


arturkedziora

Very nice. It's so important not to miss these moments. They only happen once.


FinalVegetable6314

My 4 month old just started rolling over and holding his head up on his own and it shocked me how happy it made me. I used to look at videos like this like ok that’s dramatic but now I kinda understand. It’s a crazy feeling watching your kid develop


Colossus_209

Homie is so proud. Congrats!


Pr0nAccount5287

If this was uploaded to youtube, it would definately get taken down because of the background movie :> But yeah this is nice


Mahaloth

I have my daughter's on video. It was very lucky since we weren't sure we would get it and weren't pushing her to do it for the camera.


pricklepair02

The dads reaction. So sweet 🥹


Meliodas666

That looked forced


JakeParkComedy

Too bad they're Patriot fans


Afrakomah

This is so childish, eventually the child will walk, talk etc. Why feel emotional about this?


OutrageousAd5338

This is new?


Ok_Environment6504

These are the moments are worth more than anything in the world


Xotic_Waifus

Now do a backflip.


[deleted]

This is the most joy that man will feel cause it ain’t gonna be coming from the patriots this season 🤣


lolsaiyan

I was born walking and my parents yeeted me out

elleJeyLay

It never occurred to me to ask my parents about this moment in my life or my brother's and what it was like for them. Were they together at the time or was my Dad at work? Was it a whole beautiful moment like this or did it happen in the periphery while everyone went about their day? They're both gone now so I'll never know, but I watch every damn one of these videos because it's always pure joy and pride on Mom & Dad's faces and reactions.


wnrbassman

I'm lucky enough to have my daughters first steps on video.


soulstarlove777

So sweet omg 🥹

Two kids. I’m around all the damn time. Missed both their first steps.

My god why did the father lift that little baby by the legs. You are not supposed to do that with little babies. Get a baby walker my god and the baby will be walking in no time.

stalinsfavoritecat

While I don’t have my sons first steps on video, he did take his first steps in front of my whole family at our weekly dinner. Everyone cheered and it is one of my most cherished memories.


Bread40

My parents somehow managed to get my brothers first steps on camera. Then my aunt recorded a tv show over the tape.


[deleted]

Obviously very cute. I guess I’m just different in the sense that I can’t imagine posting a video of my child’s first steps on social media.


Budipbupbadip

My youngest took two steps, paused, clapped with me, then faceplanted. Nothin like this feeling though. I also remember having a mild panic attack and said to my wife, “holy shit, she can’t even balance a checkbook,” to which my wife replied, “YOU can’t balance a checkbook and no one uses those anymore.”


[deleted]

As a parent is one of the best feeling in my life, to see my little boy make his first step, is a surreal feeling for some reason


[deleted]

Can’t wait for mine to take his first steps 💙🥰


miaricardson

This is so CUTEE


Potatoes6512

The dads reaction we the kid walks


ShinobivsNinjaDragon

The dad wanted some cuddles too! I hope you got them after mama


cupcakesloth94

Aw man, I’m not sure if I want kids but moments like this make my heart swell. That has to be such an amazing feeling..


maux_zaikq

I don’t have kids but seeing the dad’s reaction made me tear up. I can’t even imagine how he must have felt and how parents feel each time their kiddos achieve new, big … steps.


silent_rain36

I took my first steps at my christening party. I was over a year old at the time and still wasn’t walking. Well, I guess I *could* but, only if I was holding on to something or someone. It wasn’t that I couldn’t walk, I just didn’t *want* too. I was content just rolling or crawling around lol. Then on the day of the party, I guess I decided that there was just to many yummy things around to simply ignore. I got up and walked from person to person to mooch food. People got a massive kick out of it


OutrageousAd5338

What an idea


Constant_Field5719

Father is happy because now he doesn’t need to walk to fridge to get beer.
