First Step

First off, thank you so much to everyone who's commented on our last few posts re. daycare and especially re. The Bean's fever.  Your advice and support is so appreciated!  The Bean woke up at 8:00 this morning with a nice normal temperature.  We still took him to the peditrician, where everything checked out okay.   Looks like we made it through our first illness.

Secondly, The Bean took his first step this morning!  We were in the kitchen where I was making tea and he was standing up banging on his step stool.  He likes to be up looking at things in the kitchen and was reaching over towards me, then he took his other hand off the stool and just stood there for a second, then he lifted up his left foot and took a step.  Then plop!  Down he went!  I scooped him up off the floor while shouting for Jen to come in because he'd just taken a step.  Well, maybe a half step.  But still!  Our little guy is growing up!!
