Leaps and bounds

This week seems to have been an especially busy one for my little guy.
On Tuesday night, Nathan said his first word - "dada." Boy is his daddy proud.
Yesterday afternoon he woke up from his nap and when I went to get him out of his crib, he was trying to pull up on the front rails. Then this morning he was sitting up in there. Guess it's time to lower the mattress.
It's amazing to watch him grow. I just know in another month or so he'll be walking. And it's scaring me.

Snow Day!

I've decided even Mommies need Snow Days.
Yesterday's weather (albeit not so bad) was enough to close Nathan's daycare for the day, leaving Mommy with a day at home.
It was so much fun.
We played in the floor, read books, drank juice and ate peach puffs.
But the best part of the day? Nap time.
From 2 to 3:30 yesterday Nathan and I napped in "the big bed." (Mommy and Daddy's bed.) We snuggled and snored, wiggled and snoozed. It was wonderful, peaceful and just plain nice.
I'll be glad when we get some real snow next time - enough that Daddy can stay home and play with us, too.
