Literal Baby Steps

Nicholas took 3 steps yesterday. They were tentative and tiny, but I saw them...my life is very close to changing and it frightens me a bit! It doesn't help that our dear Daddy is suggesting to the little guy that he should start running...forget walking. Ugh. No running, please...how shall I keep up?

I just remembered a funny little discovery I made when I arrived home from my grand opening Saturdsay. Nicholas has discovered the joy of...toilet paper. Egads. There was toilet paper everywhere. Everywhere. I think I just today finally swept up the last few traces...but I may find more.

This is, I believe, forshadowing of what's to come. My husband can't see his son doing onery things...as long as he's quiet he can get away with anything. Tell me you actually believe he won't exploit this when he's older. Egads. I'm in trouble. Has anyone found a way to clone humans yet? I think I need ten more of me.

I've had a couple of great emails today from "pass along" customers for my business. They didn't get the note about the grand opening until today and they want to get a catalog or go online so they can order. Coolie. And I should have some orders from the bank by Wednesday. Maybe things will pick up after all!
