A "first" for Gemma!

Evan and Rowan were angels last night. I got kisses and hugs from both of them and we had some wonderful play time in the family room. When it was close to bed time, I hiked them upstairs to the nursery and let them play up there little longer (while I caught my breath!). Because he is so impatient, I changed Evan into his p.j.'s first and tried to give him his bottle. He fights me on that everytime so after a couple ounces, I plopped him down in bed and let him hold his own darned bottle. I was changing Rowan and looked around just in time to see Evan sit up by himself. Tracy had seen him sitting, but I actually saw him do it - three times! I kept laying him down and putting the blanket on him, and POP, up he goes! He uses his blankets for leverage. What a card he is!

  1. I have yet to see him do it, but he did the same thing with his bottle before their afternoon nap. He wanted to hold it himself and was not at all into being on my lap. :)

  2. I hope we get to see this big step. Only a few days until our visit.
