He's Walking!

So Donovan surprised me and started walking today! I called him to me while he was standed at his toy box to see what he would do and he just took three steps over to me. after that I decided to try repeating it to see if it was a fluke. He keep doing it again and agin. The finally he started just walking around the room. I'm so impressed with our little man!

I kept wondering when he was going to start walking. I guess April 23 is the big day. Here are so videos I captured of him in action. 

This last one is pretty short but I just love that he is handing his Elmo doll and has his hands in the air. 

Nothing beats good oral hygiene

Donovan has had a fascination with my bright green tooth brush for as long as I can remember. He would fuss and point at it when I would brush my teeth until I would give in and let him hold it/play with it. Sometimes I would even let him brush my teeth which he thought was hilarious. Finally I thought "Why not just get him his own toothbrush if he likes it so much?" So that's what I did! And he couldn't be happier. He loves his toothbrush. He carries around with him, takes it with him when he goes in his car seat and enjoys chewing on the rubbery end. Now when I brush my teeth he can pretend to brush his too.  Who knew that toothbrushes made such great toys!

Donovan Discovers the Doggie Door

We were house sitting for our friends last weekend when Donovan discovered something new...the doggie door. 

I thought it was too cute not to capture on film. Our friends Terry and Mary have six dogs, so including Becca, Donovan was surrounded by dogs all week.  So I g

uess it makes sense that he watches and learns from them too. Sometimes I wonder if Donovan thinks he is a dog.
