I don't know what it is about me but doctors always seem to want to tell me something will happen "early". My OB, God love her (thanks Joe Biden), said I was going to go into labor early. Well three days
after my due date I wanted to kill her. Our pediatrician thinks Ev will be an early walker but I'm not counting on it!
And what is up with all the people talking about how their kid started walking at 5 weeks old and crap like that!? Like it's a competition and my kid is behind if he's not running the Portland Marathon at 10 months! That is annoying and if I ever do that please someone slap me or at least tell me to shut the hell up.
Anyway Everett
is standing independently for longer periods of time and will take the occasional step. To tell you the truth I know how much work it will be when he is walking so I'm not rushing it. He has so much energy I know he will be a little speeding bullet shooting up my sanity.
Doug did a race series in K-Falls, it was mostly cold, but also a lot of fun. Cyclocross is a real spectator sport so we can all participate in the excitement. Doug also totally rocks and won 1st and 2nd and 2nd overall. What a guy!
Here are a few pics of our mellow October so far, it mostly involves bikes or some kind of bike activity.
Dad and Ev, workin on the bike
Klamath Falls - cold weather, weird people (no offense)
Cyclocross, like mountian biking but different
I love standing up like a big kid
(I do not like falling over on the gravel like a baby)
OK, so we didn't enjoy sitting on the tractor very much, but what a good time playing with pumpkins can be! I'm sending one of these shots into the Regis and Kelly cute baby contest! That is what all this stuff is for at Ev's age, it's all about the photo op!
