and we're off...

Last night my baby took the first step in NOT being a baby anymore. He showed me and his daddy how big he is and is creeping along army-style. Yes, he is on the go. I knew he was close. It is adorable. He puts his right arm forward with the forearm flat and pulls his body up and over it, all the while his little bum is up in the air. Anything to get you going, right? O is a joy. He is so pleasant and so smiley. My sister-in-law was holding him the other night and commented on how great he is and happy he is with a stranger. He loves everyone. If I'm around, he will choose me, but otherwise he will go to anyone and be your best friend. It is his big 8 month birthday tomorrow. Where does the time go? We were just getting ready to go to the hospital. How our lives have changed, but for the better. I cannot imagine it any other way.
