so our boy rallied like a champ. yeah. showed that bug real good. he was sitting on the floor staurday morning when a thought bubble popped up: you can't hold me down, winter bug and he pushed himself up into standing. all on his own! {that one really did go in the book} then, because standing up big and tall wasn't enough, he started crawling. and i'm not talking army crawl - that was SO three weeks ago - it was a proper baby crawl. {also in the book} last, to cap the week of milestones and to prove that he's not all brawn, he spoke his first word. he sure did. we were all lying in bed when the boy turned his head, noticed his father beside him, and with a delighted tone of discovery said "dada". at six a.m on a sunday morning i didn't even care that "mama" didn't come out first. that utterance bought me a good three additional hours of sleep. there wasn't the slightest bit of resistance from dada, who gladly got out of bed to watch premier league soccer with his son. i could use about six more days of that kind of luxury. between you, me, and the baby, we've been working on "dad", "daddy", "padre", "papa", "pop", and "poop" (because sometimes, he really is).
ain't nothing gonna hold us down
