Walking + stairs = big day for me

Today I woke up around 8am. I got some good sleep and was ready to start my day. I had breakfast and played with my toys, you know, the usual stuff. At noon I went down for my nap. When I woke up and called out Daddy came and got me. Mommy had left to run some errands. Daddy fed me lunch and played with me a little. We were coming back from a diaper change when Mommy got home with groceries. Once I saw her, I wanted to be with her so I made it a little difficult for her to put the food away.

I practiced walking more today. In fact, I made it all the way across the family room without falling all on my own! There were times today that I actually looked like I was trying to run. After playing a little more and hanging out I went over to the tv. I found a button and started pushing it over and over. Daddy told me no but I just kept pushing it. Daddy picked me up and put me in the center of the room. I crawled over to the tv again and continued pushing the button. Mommy came over and picked me up and told me we were going to go play in my room. She grabbed some toys and we went to my room. After a little playtime there we got dressed and put our coats on to go for a visit to the Harrington House.

We visited with Chachi first. Then we went downstairs to see Aunt Lynn, Aunt Erin, Uncle Sean, Aidan and Gavin. Aidan, Gavin and I all found different toys to keep us occupied. Gavin really likes the goalie stick that we got for Christmas. Aidan is always pretending he is a goalie. He had his bike helmet on saying it was his goalie mask. He had his hockey gloves on and his knee pads and pretending to slide around on the "ice". We are a hockey-loving family. Grandma came downstairs to play too. She walked around with me helping me to walk.

We also played on the stairs a little. Uncle Sean told Aidan and Gavin that they should play on the stairs cause it is dangerous but Mommy let me because I don't get to practice stairs very often. After just standing on the bottom stair for a long time I finally started to go. I made it up the entire flight of stairs all on my own and then managed to kick the door open to see Chachi and Grandma.

After a fun visit I told Mommy that we really needed to go. I was tired. So Mommy and I drove home, got changed for bed, said goodnight to Daddy and I was in bed at 8:30pm.
