Fun with Daddy

Daddy had a few days off that he needed to take, so we definitely took advantage of that and enjoyed spending some family time together.

11 Months Old

Total lack of pictures this month! I have no idea what happened. Well, Smiley did end of getting his 4 front upper teeth all at the same time right as he was turning 10 months. And then two weeks later at 10 1/2 months he go two more on the bottom. So now has a total of 8 teeth. He seems to be glad that all those teeth at once are over with. Smiley just goes with the flow now a days and is always ready to play with Junior and Gaga. He is just itching to walk all over the place, but just doesn't have the strength and power yet. He did however the day before he turned 11 months (yesterday) take his first few steps from me to Daddy. He knew that he was doing something special because he was all SMILES. He continued to want to do it again and again, but would only be able to take about 5 steps and then lunge forward. He didn't take his time and balance. He just started "running" until we caught him. We are completely surprised by his walking this early. Junior and Gaga waited until 14 and 15 months to walk. Of course Smiley is by no means walking, just taking a few steps, but this is far sooner than the other two!

Fun with Friends

A couple recent outings. One with friends to a trampoline/jump place. The other with the homeschool group for bowling.

Bowling time

Gaga would not leave her ball even for a second! She was stuck to it like glue and would anxiously await while it transferred back to the ball return. Of course, it was pink!

10 Months Old

His first owie! He thought he could make it down a step on the front porch but his head landed first before the rest of his body! :( Along with his first owie came his first ear infection! He was acting fine during the day but the night times were cranky! So I took him in to find an ear infection and 4 upper teeth trying to come in all at once. Poor baby!

Fell asleep on the kitchen floor while I was cooking dinner. He was one tired little guy to fall asleep on the hard tile.

LOVES playing with toilet paper!
