Baby Steps

What a difference a year makes!! Last summer, Nate would hardly go near anything that had to do with water....sprinklers, pools, water guns, etc. But now, look at our boy! He enjoyed a SLIP-N-SLIDE with some big kids (neighbors) last night. Greg and I have never been so proud!! First baby step....being pulled by Dad thru the slip-n-slide Step #2...run thru it, still holding Dad's hand of course Step #3...venturing out alone - just running thru it Step #4...actually slipping & sliding on his own!!
And here is a video that one of our neighbors shot. It was done before Nate actually mastered the "sliding" part! Enjoy! :)

Wow! I expect him to LOVE the beach. I'm sure he will if Daddy is with him. I'm just hoping that he doesn't take off on his own declaring that he is going home (last Year). Sorry we missed the fun.

This might be my all-time favorite post. I also love (and miss!) Greg's laughter in the beginning. :)
