J's 1st steps! / Mama, this is not a pillow!

John took his 1st steps in Camp Coco Palms.  He took 2 steps, then another 2 steps, and then 1 step.  Of course he sat and fell in between but he still tried again.  What a champ! :)

I joined Thomas in Camp Coco and pretended to sleep on his chest.  He said "Mama, this is not a pillow! This is a boy!!!" :.)

Rosemont Father's Day

We had a good run especially when Dan & Thomas were playing.  Everything else they didn't participate in, Green lost ;)

Chicken McDeer

Mama & Thomas had date night at Chicken & Beer.  He was such a sweetie.  "Mama, can you hold my hand because there are cars?"  "Mama, can you hold the glass because I might spill?"  "Mama, can you play puzzle with me?"

I love my little big boy!
