Be excited. It's almost Worldwide Winthrop Day, y'all!

Gooooo Eagles!

Shepard is ready. Worldwide Winthrop Day is Saturday, March 26. All Winthrop-alum, students, fans, etc. are to wear their Winthrop shirts and take a picture of yourself wherever you are.  :) We decided to go ahead and get his pic today so we could promote the day via Facebook. Cute little eagle. Mommy is class of '97 and Daddy is class of '98. Shepard would be...class of 2032 if he chooses. 2032!!! That'll make you feel old in a hurry. He was already made famous by the Winthrop President as I relayed here.

This week, Shepard added some new skillz to his repertoire. In addition to the now-speedy crawling, he has pulled up to his FEET several times. We will be dropping that crib like it's HOT all the way to the lowest setting in the morning. The ladies at pre-school tell me that he is into everything...and trying to get out the door. Just Wednesday, he opened the one cabinet w/o a kid-proof lock and tried to unplug the fridge. Yesterday, he crawled out the door (with supervision) and went as far as the next room before he tuckered out and Ms. Pebbles carried him back. Adventurous. She said he kept looking back as if to say, "Is this ok? 'Cause I'm going!"

I don't have enough high surfaces to contain my piles of "stuff." Yikes!! I think we're going to have to get a gate too. And I need to do one more pass on the outlet cover thingies...and get our bathroom cabinets latched. In my free time. This is all happening too fast! Now, what would be awesome is if he would grow some TEETH so we could feed him energy foods instead of purees. The kid seems big enough to munch on a roast beef sandwich, but we're sticking with sweet potatoes and such for now.
