A little boy who was born without arms and legs because of a rare congenital disorder has taken his first steps at the age of four.

Camden Whiddon, who has phocomelia syndrome and amelia, can play the piano, feed himself and move around on his stumps despite not having hands or feet.

And he appeared today on Good Morning Britain to reveal how he's recently learned to walk, thanks to the help of his parents, Katie and Cole Whiddon, and his older sister Ryleigh.

Camden smiled at the camera and waved as his parents showed footage of him shuffling forward on his stumps.

"He is exceptional," Piers Morgan told the family of four.

"He really is, he really inspires me because he has all this determination in himself to do things," said proud mum Katie.

"Sometimes you can get down but then you see Camden and he doesn't feel any of that, he just goes and does things that he wants to do and it's nothing to him.

"Like when I asked him if he was proud of himself for learning to walk, he just said, 'No, I'm just walking'."

Camden first came to public attention in November when his mum shared a video of him playing Jingle Bells on the piano online.

Texas-based Katie posted the adorable footage of Camden playing the festive tune with his cousin Jonathan.

Katie said on her Facebook page at the time: "Camden playing the piano with our cousin Jonathan Montgomery. Jonathan, thank you for playing the piano with Camden. He loved it so much and hasn’t stopped talking about it!

"He’s always been really good with beat and rhythm and singing the same note as the keys he hits on the piano. I’m hoping he will grow up with a love for music!"

Katie wrote on her blog, titled Admirably Diverse : "Camden is four years old and was born on October 2, 2013. He was born without arms or legs and was diagnosed with Amelia-Phocomelia Syndrome at birth.

"Despite Camden's limb difference, he is your typical four year old boy. He picks his nose, thinks farts are funny, never stops talking, and is always messing with his younger sister.

"He can draw, paint, sit up by himself, feed himself, wash his own face, brush his own teeth, climb up stairs, and so many other things."

Camden has already found fame around the world after a video of him calming his newborn brother Jaxon went viral.

The young boy was able to pick up his baby sibling's pacifier and place it in his mouth after the baby started crying.

In another blog post, Katie revealed that she had been teaching Camden's sister Ryleigh the names of her fingers, when Camden said: "I don't have fingers. I have a big arm and a little arm right here.'

She wrote: "Your first reaction to what he had to say was probably sadness or pity, but y'all. What he said made me SO proud.

"One of my biggest fears is that Camden is going to be too nervous to talk about his limb-differences or that he won't even know what to say. But last night. Man. He made my heart fill up with pride."

Good Morning Britain continues tomorrow at 6am on ITV.
