First Steps








I saw him take some steps Tuesday afternoon! He took off from the coffee table and took a couple, then continued to practice the rest of the afternoon. He took up to 4 at a time and also stood up on his own from sitting on the floor. Ready or not, I am sure it won't be long now until he's running around!
I am happy to say we finally had a good night's sleep last night! Between his bug bites bothering him & his cold, we had been up a lot in the night the past couple weeks. He had been sleeping so well until this point, and I was really not excited about this switch in his schedule!! Our baby-sitter was here last night & he went to sleep well for her around 8pm & did not wake until 6am to eat, then fell back asleep until 8am. It sure will be nice if he can stick to that for awhile!!
I'm adding a few pics from this morning. He has a huge curl over each ear and it looks so funny. He was in a great mood when he woke up (probably thanks to a night of uninterrupted sleep!) and went right to his new favorite toy....the blue Tigger ball his Uncle brought him Monday. He has had so much fun rolling, tossing & chasing that ball around! His other favorite hobby is still emptying the cupboards. I got a shot of him getting into the kitchen ones while I fixed his breakfast. I don't care how many fancy toys you could give that boy, I still think he would prefer to be emptying our bathroom or kitchen cabinets!
