Another milestone crossed

Blake is now taking steps and is pushing his little fireman walker across the floor. He chose to begin this new phase of development while we were on vacation in Florida. I was taking a shower because I hate the feeling of sand when it dries, while Raun, Blake, and my parents were playing. I came out to loud noises and Raun came in to tell me that Blake had just took his first step. I was so sad. And yes, I cried. Not only because of the fact that he was growing up so fast, but also because I missed his first step. I mean, I'm with him almost every single day and he chooses to do this without me watching. Mom came in and talked to me, telling me that every mother knows how I felt and that I will miss a lot of firsts. That helped just to hear that other mother's felt this way. To top it off, my camera fell in the sand and broke, so I wasn't able to get a picture. I think my mom did, though.

Speaking of pictures, I will try to post some at some point soon. Raun turns 30 years old this weekend so we are going on a suprise trip for a few days. I'll let you know all about it when we get back. I'm excited because he's clueless!

Back to milestones, Blake also has cut another tooth. He now has two on the bottom. He looks so cute with that little toothy smile. I often think about how uncomfortable it must be to only have two teeth. Wouldn't that hurt when it hit the top of your mouth? Who knows. And I don't want to find out.
