February 8, 2007. It was a big day. Emily and Armando had their baby, Stella, this morning. Anna took her first steps. And Britain was blanketed with snow.
Anna took her first couple of steps today. We had just finished a successful potty visit and had put her "Baby" down. Her baby is a large stuffed monkey who is soft though slightly odd looking. "Baby," is one of her few words and monkey is very clearly called "Baby." She loves Baby. I placed her on her feet about half a meter away from Baby and instead of flopping and crawling, she took a step. At that point, momentum was on her side and two more steps followed. There was a lot of cheering from dad.
I worked from home today. I had been warned that snow and British roads is a recipe for spending a long time in the car. I stopped by Ange's school to take a couple of photos of the campus in the snow. It was really very pretty, as you can see:

Yay! Pass my congrats on to Emily! And Anna! And why are John and I not included in that poll? At this point I am not voting. :)
Congrats to all of you over there. Births, steps and snow all on one day, wow! The snow looks lovely. I am sure it looks more lovely than the roads feel.
Hi Ben ...
This is has nothing to do with your big day, but I thought you would be happy to know that the Flames traded Ference tonight. Whenever he coughs up the puck I think of you! Congrats on your new status of uncle-hood and Anna's first steps ... stay warm!

Congrats to everyone!
hugs!
