February 2007 Update

Nolan is 5 Months Old!

February brought lots of firsts for Nolan. The weather was really mild so it brought his first stroller ride and lots of walks with Mom. Because of the stroller walks he wore his first sunglasses and hats. We debuted his first Levis and made his first trip with all of the Whittaker family to Chuck-A-Rama for Echo's 26th birthday-where he was very interested in the birthday balloons.

He also had his first experience in Grandma Whittaker's highchair, and continued to thrill us with giggles and smiles.

But the most important first was the addition of his Johnny-jump-up to his playtime. He knew what to do with it from the moment that we put him in-despite the fact that he was still just a bit small enough to have to be padded in with blankets. This jumper would soon become his favorite passtime and easiest way to show off those powerful legs!

We celebrated his first Valentines Day with a quiet (well almost) dinner with Mom & Dad at home and a new stuffed black Valentine puppy from Grandma Whittaker and a cute card and "candy money" from Grandma Merrell.

Then before we knew it February was over and here came March.
