SO thankful for our monthly date nights!  I look forward to it for days in advance and am usually giddy with excitement to go out.  Thanks, honey!  (And thanks, Lynn, for babysitting!)

So… James has been taking one or two steps at a time for a week or so now, but… yesterday he decided he’d had enough of that and started walking!  I mean, walking from one room to another, no messing around!  See the video for more (it’s short) – you can tell that mom’s pretty excited (we all are, really).  Way to go, James!

(Also, we have a new blog theme for spring/summer – you’re still in the right place even if it looks different.)
