Crab cakes with Martha and Per...and FIRST STEPS

Martha and Per (Noah's Great Great Aunt and Uncle that live in Sweden) were in town over Mother's Day weekend. Noah and I visited with Martha on Friday while Per was fishing and it was love at first site. Noah was really busy entertaining Martha and everyone else that happened to walk through the lobby of the hotel. On Monday we all went to dinner at Cally's (formerly Calhoun's for those of you that haven't been in the burg in a while) which is our regular dinner venue when Martha and Per visit. Aside from the good food, they're also a brewery...Noah loved it (the evening, not the beer). He also loved my crabcakes (yup, he's my kid alright)!

The reason we don't have pictures:
Me: "Matt, the camera should still be in the diaper bag from yesterday unless you took it out"
Matt: "It's not in here."
Me: "Did you take it out?"
Matt: "No, I haven't seen it."
Me: "Then it should be in there, in the case"
Matt: "Well, I don't know what to tell you, it's not in here."
This is not verbatim, but you get the gist. This was our conversation at Cally's when I wanted to take a picture. What did I learn from this? Always look in the diaper bag myself...the camera was there the whole time...but I didn't realize this until we got home.

So on Sunday (Mother's Day) Noah took a couple of steps back and forth between Matt and me - so exciting! While Matt was home with him on Monday he walked across his bedroom FOUR times. I know, he's been ready for SO long, he was just waiting till he could really take off. So he did get to show off for Martha and Per which was really exciting. Now Noah is walking whenever he can, but will still revert to crawling when he loses his balance and lands on his rear. He really loves his new freedom. Yes I have video...but as of yet I have not figured out how to get video from the camcorder to the computer (all posted videos so far are from the camera). I'm working on it.
