There's No Stopping Evie Now!

So, as I mentioned earlier, Evie took her first steps on Friday December 12. She didn't feel like doing it again until this past Friday, and she has really taken off. She walked for Uncle David on Saturday and for Nana and Grandpa Cermak on Sunday (today)! At first she would only walk toward one of us, but then she became confident enough to just stand up and walk wherever she wanted.

Here she goes:




She is quite pleased with herself - just look at the big smiles on her face!

Here she and Gavin are playing peek-a-boo around their bookcase, which Gavin has pushed out away from the cabinet:


Also, Monday morning (tomorrow) Evie will have another angiogram at Christ Hospital. Francis and Nana Cermak are going to take her. Unfortunately she is going to be second on the schedule, so she will go in when the first baby is done. It's always better to be first - it beats waiting around for the cardiac team to finish up with the first baby! She has to be there by 9am and we hope she can get started soon after that!

After the procedure she will be in recovery for 6 hours, so she and Daddy will get home after her bedtime. I will stay home with Gavin, as he has been VERY clingy with me and will still only take a bottle from me. (Yes, they still get bottles but Gavin is making great progress with his sippy cup - more on that in a future post).

Francis will bring the laptop to the hospital, so watch this space for updates!
