A big night for Mr B...

Tonight was one of those nights I wish I had a camera crew following us around... Britton took his "first steps" unassisted! He was walking back and forth between Scott and I while holding our hands, and then all the sudden he let go, took 4 choppy little steps and fell forward into Daddy's waiting arms. I felt tears fill up my proud Mommy eyes, realizing how quickly my baby is growing up! Lucky Grandma got to witness this blessed event, as did Chloe and Joey, who seemed not to care much. Also tonight, we lowered Britton's crib mattress since he has been pulling up in the mornings, and I removed the bumper pad after hearing how I used to use mine as a step stool when I was a baby. About five minutes after we put him to bed, we heard his panicked screams over the sound of the Nuggets game. When I raced into his room I saw him laying on his tummy with both legs sticking straight out-- out through the rails of his crib! Poor baby... So he got to stay up past bedtime and get extra cuddles from Grandma and Grandpa while Mommy reattached the bumper in hopes that my little walker is not quite yet a little climber!
