He can stand...with the help of the couch or our hands...but he still doesn't want to crawl! He may walk and never crawl at this rate...silly kid.

No teeth after all that...false alarm! I'm okay with that. I actually cried when Christopher got his first tooth (hormones!)...I was so upset that his smile was "ruined"!

This month was spent indoors for the most part. He loves the library, taking a ride in the stroller (long walks to the park/library), "reading" his books, chewing on paper, "talking", swinging at the park, sledding, and watching his brother. He loves to splash in the tub, but it's more fun with a brother!

He loves Puffs, sweet potatoes, blueberries with applesauce, bananas, and pears. Green beans are tolerated and peas are disgusting!

P.S. He's adorable in his cloth diapers...and the hippopotamus jammies (they have a hippo on the backside). We call him "Hippopoto-patootie". ;)

Happy Valentine's Day!


*Robot template found here. I used it as a freezer paper stencil instead. And Christopher needs a haircut...badly! ;)

I like water play at COSI and chewing on books. I also like to shriek and coo...and say "mmmba" when eating green beans. It's funny when my green beans spray everywhere!

I'm not too motivated to crawl...but I can spin in a circle on my back and roll over. I'd rather sit and watch my brother. He's the most hysterical thing I've ever seen.

I like to play peek-a-boo with Mommy and Daddy. It always surprises me!

I'm getting my first tooth. And that makes me a little more cranky and tired than usual. Mommy likes my extra naps!
