March 5 - First Steps

Aaannnddd....back to work :( I was back at work for my day shift today and Anth was home with the boys. It was a fairly busy day at work but actually a lot better than it has been lately. Of course everything happened right near the end of shift (as usual) so I ended up leaving a little late (as usual) which is really starting to get frustrating! Anyways, Anth stayed home most of the day with the boys. He took the boys and the dogs out for a run (brave guy!) and did some cooking and some cleaning (love it!). He did not, however take any pictures :( We do have some video though, which I might post once we have it downloaded on the computer, of Gavin's FIRST STEPS!!!! I was in SUCH a bad mood when I got home and then I was playing with the kids and and started walking Gavin while he was holding onto one of my fingers and he let go of my finger and went straight down to crawling. I picked him back up and started walking him again and he let go and was standing for a few seconds and then took about 5 steps!!!! We couldn't believe it!!! We were totally not expecting it. Then we spend about 15 or so minutes just getting him to walk between Anth and I and another 15 trying to get Cars to follow suit. It put me in a better mood instantly. It was kind of late (about 2030) when all this was happening so Gavin got tired pretty quick and we put the boys, and shortly afterwards ourselves, to bed. Back to work in the morning.

Please ignore my RIDICULOUS voice - apparently I was excited :)
