We were hanging out at the house on Sunday since we got to stay in town this weekend. After cooking a late breakfast, I began doing some cleaning while Marlee and Daddy played. I've been cleaning and trying to finish up laundry getting ready to leave for a girls' trip to the beach. {Side note: I'm gonna be away from Marlee from the first time for more than 12 hours...and it's for 5 days!!!! Mallory & Julie invited me to the beach! It'll probably be harder on me than her, but I will definitely enjoy my girl time away. Gama came up for the week, Bebe is coming on Thursday, and I'll be back Sunday. I hope everything goes okay (a little anxious)! But I'm so excited!} Anyway, I come downstairs after vacuuming, and Dave said that Marlee keeps letting go of his hand to stand and looks like she wants to take a step. We grab the yoga mat, set up the video camera, and have her try to walk back and forth between us. And....she did! We have almost 6 minutes of video, but Dave edited the best part of the video down to under 2 minutes (he even added sound effects). Said video above!
And guess what?! Marlee's first, first cousin (Charlie, not really, but that's what the name is until they know the name) is due March 24th!!!!! Jon told us when he came to the beach with my family because April thought they might be, but they are almost 7 weeks along now. And today is April's 30 birthday...HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT APRIL! We are so excited that they are expecting! Fun times ahead! They will be awesome parents!
Marlee has had a lot of firsts in her short little life so far (rolling,sitting, foods, laughs, teeth, standing walking) , but there are lots of "firsts" on the horizon. Tonight, I'm leaving Marlee for the first time, she'll have her 1st b'day party soon, and many more! I love my family and friends so much, and I LOVE be a mommy. Can't believe I've had this important job for almost 1 year already, but it feels like Marlee has been part of our lives all along. Looking forward to the rest of the year!
