He walks!

At 4:28PM today (Aug 31st) I received a phone call from Sabrina telling me that Matthew had walked. By the time I got home, it was 5:15PM and I got to see him take between 8 and 10 steps before sitting down. It would appear that he took a few walks before I did arrive. While Sabrina was in the bath, he walked again. He was quite proud of himself.

We are too. He's twelve days shy of 11 months.

A few notes: his first steps were taken because he was angry at Sabrina, wanting a toy she had in her hands. He walked towards her. He wobbles a lot, so he still has a road to travel before he gets there. But it's looking good.

Matthew walks

Matt did something amazing a few nights ago (August 23td). He was mad at Suzanne because she didn't want him to have Sabrina's toothbrush so he got up, started yelling at her, then telling her off in his baby language (I don't understand what he's saying but I'm sure it's foul and I fear that he's going to sit on the bench very often that little one). He then took two steps towards her, unaided. He was so mad he did not noticed he had walked.

Sabrina is three years old.

Wow, I can't believe our little girl is now three. She is so amazing, so bright, a real little princess. She is so intelligent, so full of life that spending time with her is a gift I thank God for. Happy birthday my love.

La Ronde on Sunday

Thank you Nuance for a great day at La Ronde Sunday (Aug 19th, 2007). Sabrina had a real good time, even though she was a bit scared on some of the rides. Matthew also had a lot of fun as he got to hug a lot of my coworker and their girlfriends (I am not responsible if your girlfriend's clock starts ticking after holding him). Here are a few pictures.

Matthew having a great time on the monorail. 10 months old and no fear (yet!!!)

Now that's a face!

Maybe this ride is a bit much for Sabrina.
