Day of Firsts!

This past week Harvey had a day of a few firsts!

Wednesday morning he woke up with a tooth! It hasn't gone back down like the other one so it looks like it's here to stay. It was the tooth right NEXT to his top front left tooth. It looks like he will have the two teeth surrounding his front top teeth first so he'll look kinda funny when the other one comes in too. We'll have to alter the popular Christmas song to be "All I want for my first birthday is my two front teeth!" Which, I cannot believe his first birthday is just three weeks away already... How did that come up so fast!?!

The first few days we were here we were driving around and I noticed a Gymboree Play & Learn place and I got excited! My mom used to take me to those when I was a toddler and not that I remember, but I saw the pictures from it and it looked like something super cool to do with the youngster. I checked online and signed us up for the free class this past Wednesday. Adreanne and I went with the boys and Harvey had so much fun! I wasn't sure how he'd do with a bunch of other babies in a new place he'd never been. He tends to be scared of babies his age at first. As soon as we walked in to the Gymboree though, I saw his face light up like he knew we were coming here just for him. It made my little heart melt. We went in the play area and he took off. Found some fun balls to play with, crawled up the ramps, I helped him through this little baby obstacle course. Then at the end they do some music and other things. He was absolutely fascinated by everything and wasn't scared at all. He went up to the other kids and jabbered away at them. He went up to the adults and jabbered away at them too. LOVED the huge cloud of bubbles from this special bubble gun thing they have. And he also loved the parachute. He loved it all. They were having a special last week of $50 off sign up and the first month so I signed us up! I am excited for something to go do with him a few times a week that I know he will LOVE and also be a chance to get out of the house and meet some new people here in our new home. It should be fun!
