Josh Took a(n unsupported) step last night!!
Josh Stood up,carefully balanced, then took a small step toward me during the bedtime routine last night. We were way excited but couldn't convince him to try again. He'll be walking before we know it and he's only 10 months!

No More Groceries
So what did you get at the grocery store, hon?
"..."
"There goes our grocery budget for the month."
In all seriousness, though, Erin took the kids swimming and Josh fell asleep in the pool so he got to ride home in the canvas bag so Erin could also carry his still inflated floating baby seat.

A.Maze.Ing.
We went to Lagoon today and no one cried. No one whined. No one voiced much discord at all. The kids even tried lots of rides and seemed
to have a great time. Levi went on Puff the Magic Dragon for the first time (he's ducking next to Erin but said it was fun):
The kids also rode on the airplanes, the boats, the Train, the sky ride, and the ferris wheel. This is a pretty HUGE breakthrough because last year, and the year before, they couldn't ride a ride without one of them bursting into tears and screaming/shrieking at the top of their lungs. Today was just incredible.
Erin and I each took turns riding Wicked. That was quite an experience for both of us. Oddly enough, we could both fit our girth into the seats comfortably, but got a pretty good scare because the attendants told us both that the lap bar hadn't latched. No big deal, right? Not exactly:
Yeah, that yellow tower is probably 6 or 7 stories high and gravity forces you forward against your lap bar the entire time you're basically free-falling downward. That same lap bar that the attendant had told us hadn't latched completely. I've never prayed so hard not to die in my entire life. I may just try it again if I ever get around to losing 130 pounds or so.
