Walker......

Oh my goodness we have a mover on our hands. My mom and dad were watching Philip this weekend, as both Ryan and I had to work, and decided to get his walker out. None of us knew he would catch on so fast. We have a tile floor in our kitchen and in his slippery pj's he was able to make it all the way across the floor before my realized what he was doing. She turned him around and he took off back the other way. What a goof he is. He now knows how to turn his walker when he is about to run into something so he can head back the other way. He just sits and opens the cupboards and closes them. He has a lip on his walker that doesn't allow the doors to open all the way, so he can't reach in them thank goodness. I'm hoping that Ryan will have at least Sunday off this week so we can go and buy our locks for the cupboard doors. We need to get that done now.

Ryan worked 7 days last week......in total he ended up with 66 hours, and sunday was double time. Sunday alone paid for our daycare, which is nice and all, it just would be nicer to have him home. I guess I was spoiled when we were both off during the 2 weeks for the holidays. He falls asleep by 8 most nights, since he gets up at 5, and I'm up until between 10 and 11 by myself. There isn't anything wrong with having my me time, it would just be nice to have a little help preparing for the next day. By the time I get to work, I'm exhausted already because I have spent the whole morning focused on Philip and trying to get me ready for work. Then at 3 it starts all over again. I know, enough whining....sorry!

Philip is getting very good at pulling himself up these days. He is even getting brave enough to walk between the table and Ryan's chair. Now mind you, they touch eachother, but he is still walking on hanging on to the chair. He knows how to move his feet and take steps. My baby is growing up way too fast!
