Those First steps!
Just the day before Jeff and I were debating about when Roo would take her first steps. I said it would be two weeks, Jeff said a momth. Well we were both wrong.
We finally had a day to spend togther. Jeff has been working such long hours its hard to even get a hug in let alone some good hangout time. So this Saturday we packed Roo in her car seat and went out into the world.
Jeff had a quick meeting in West Seattle so nina and i went driving around and (of course) ended up at La Roo. I only had 45 minutes so I tried to make it quick. I hadn’t seen Dad since he got back from Italy. I pulled up to the house and was looking forward ot suprising them but as i walked up the drive way dad was already half way down the wlak with his arms outstreched for Nina. It was sweet.
They immeditaley set to playing with and loving on her. She had two phones, one for each hand. She would not put them down. She tried to put them both in one had so she could play with something else but they were too heavy. Before i knew ot was was toddling over to me foot by foot carrying her two phones. My dad got the whole thing on tape. I was totally in denial. I said,”that doesn’t count!” i don’t knwo why.. I think I wasn’t ready. nina responded by wlaking again, but this time further. I was officially official. Nina took her first steps! I scooped her up and sweezed her. I’m so proud of my girl.
