Conquering The Stairs

Very slowly, the snow has melted and with it, our moods have lifted. I believe that needed to stay inside because of the cold caused everyone to be a bit grouchy.

Adam and Kirby played some more and Adam is getting in his groove of walking with his push toy.


Saturday, we went to the Beer, Bourbon and BBQ Festival in Atlantic Station with the Sullivans. I don't care to drink, so I drove and Adam and I ate a lot of BBQ. Rusty, Keith, and Meghan tried lots of beers and a few bourbons. The music and competitions were fun. The weather started out being a bit chilly, but it turned out to be a beautiful day. It was great to spend time together, but we knew it was time to go when people who don't know their limit started falling over.


That night, we all had dinner in the Marietta Square at a Latin-Asian fusion restaurant called Taqueria Tsunami. Everything we ate from the short rib quesadilla to the s'more egg rolls was fantastic. If you're in the area, I absolutely recommend it!

Sunday, I kept nursery at church (which ended up just being Adam since the other kids have moved to the next class), but I was able to go into the nursing mothers' room and have a good chat with one of the other mommies while Adam just sat on the floor and played. We met up with my parents for lunch at Cheeseburger Bobbies and discovered there that two more of Adam's teeth popped through and one is very close! This pic was taken a couple of days later and was not easy to accomplish.


Yesterday, Adam and I went to the mall. I haven't been to a mall in probably six months and haven't been to this particular mall in probably seven years. Apparently, this mall has a train that kids can ride in that goes around the entire top floor. We didn't ride it, but every time it passed, Adam got super excited. We had lunch at the food court and he couldn't get enough of the fried rice I let him try. We didn't buy anything, but it was just something to do to get out of the house on a rainy day. We did get to see the Easter bunny. Since we went in the morning on a weekday morning, there was no line and although we weren't getting a picture done, the Bunny came over and waved at Adam (who didn't care much) and gave him some bunny ears (which he hated).


Today, Emma (my sister) came over. It was a complete surprise, but she called and said she was off and asked if I wanted to hang out. We sat around and talked and then had lunch at Zaxby's (Adam ate an entire chicken finger himself). In one week, Adam went from discovering the stairs and looking at them longingly to climbing them. It was a good  thing that Emma was there because she walked up behind him just in case - although he was surprisingly stable on his own.
