Well we have heard reports from the baby sitter that Gavin took a few steps the other day. I noticed on Friday night he took an unaided step from the coffee table to the table. But on Saturday night Gavin took five steps from the couch to me. It was a wobbley (sp?) stagger but he did it in front of Heidi and I. Of course we hadn't been able to reproduce it again. The most I can get him to take is two steps before he wants to drop and crawl. But it should be soon. Maybe next weekend we'll work with him more. Also we discover his "I want that!" look when he sees balloons in the store. He also points at things now, kinda funny.
He is also either sick or teething in more teeth, most likely both. This weekend we have a very cranky baby on our hands. If he walks again I'll tape it and throw it up on the video section.

Standing Up
We are seeing glimpses of Gavin standing up without aide of the furniture. Though it is for only a brief moment, it still really cool to see him do that. He is acting more and more like a toddler and less like a baby. Balloons are his favorite toy at the moment, but since he likes to bite it, we have to take them away if we are not playing directly with him. He still wants Heidi's hair brush if he sees it. Climbing up stairs is nothing for him now. He'll even climb down if we let him. The last time I took him outside he was too young to really crawl around, so I'm excited for the temperature to rise so we can play in the dirt/grass.

Birthday Party
Gavin celebrated his 1st birthday by traditionally consuming and/or playing with a birthday cake. He didn't tear the cake apart as fast as I thought one would do, but actually I felt he was a little confused about what was in front of him. But after a little bit he a full on mess. We just did a small birthday party with our family. I put photos up on our Flickr account and have a video on Youtube.
