Exciting stuff

Marcus has been having lots of "firsts" lately...and I am sure they will keep on coming for the next several yrs. :)

We went to the beach for the first time with him last week...no, we didn't play in the sand. Curtis and I just wanted to take him for a walk on the sand in his "Bob" stroller. Then on Friday, we went down to LA (not a first) but it was my good friend from college's bacherolette so I got to go out with some friends for a few hours (a first)...poor babysitters (my mom, dad and Curtis).

They said he did pretty well with the exception of some crying (for me) after I called to check on him and woke him up...BAD mommy...how was I to know that would happen...oops!! My brother gave us a room at his hotel so we got to take Marcus to West Hollywood (a first) and stay at a hotel (another one of his firsts). On Sunday, we took him into the hotel's swimming pool (yes, a first, are you seeing a pattern yet?). We had a blast!!!

Then this Monday, for the first time (I suppose you figured that out right?), Marcus rolled over and we got to put him in his Baby Einstein "jumper/entertainment center."

Before I forget...he is starting to say "maaa"...I don't know..."mama" might be his first word...well at least that's my wishful thinking...hehe :)
