This past month has been the most fun one yet...you are learning and growing so fast and now that you are moving, we are in BIG trouble! This month you went from attempting to move, to rolling everywhere, to pushing up on your knees, to crawling and pulling up on EVERYTHING and cruising. Its amazing to watch!The "funniest" part is because you are so small still, you don't look like you should be able to do what you can do! You are still mostly in 0-3 clothes and size 1 diapers :) You are so social and LOVE to be around people, as long as mom or dad are there too! You give the best smiles and people stop us all the time to tell us how cute you are and how lucky we are to have you, and they are right....we are so lucky!
Stats:
Weight: 13 lbs 8 oz
Height: 25.5"
While you have been able to pull up on your learning table for a while (since before 8 months), this month you have learned how to pull to stand on LOTS of other, sometimes not safe things, like the stroller, the bath, the change table, the cat, the door and the entertainment system. You love your new found freedom! Daddy and I have to watch you even more closely now and it seems like the more dangerous the object, the more you want to stand at it!
On June 10th, you figured out a key "piece of the puzzle" by learning how to go from hand and knees to sitting. You are now super fast at this!
On June 13th, you became "officially mobile" by rolling over and over again. For a few days, this was your go to method of moving.
On June 16, you took your first tentative crawling steps and mommy caught them on film by having you crawl towards yourself on her phone :)
While you aren't walking on all fours, you love to get into a "bear" position. Here is one of the first times you did it on June 18.
10 days later (June 26), you were a master crawler who was ALL over the place! You like to explore under tables/desks and go from the play area in the living room to the one by the window. You also enjoy chasing the cats, but I dont think they like it as much!
You are also able to crawl to your walker, pull yourself up and walk around the kitchen a bit! You are amazing!
You are still a great eater and are willing to try new things (at least once). This month some of your new foods include - chicken soup, lamb, yogurt, ice cream, papaya, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, watermelon, cauliflower, green bean, ravioli, falafel, pita and rice. You are now eating 3 "solids" meals almost every day. You really enjoying eating with mom and dad, you insist on feeding yourself and you are also now drinking water from a sippy cup!!!
On June 15th, we celebrated Daddy's first Father's Day. You gave him a super cute card, a drill and LOTS of hugs and kisses all day! Your daddy is wonderful and amazing with you and you love him soooo much!!! We went to the park and you had a great time swinging and sliding with your daddy!
You are such a daredevil! You like the thrill of dangerous things! You love being upside down, tossed around, flipped and up high on mom or dads shoulders. Here are some pics from this month that show that!!
On July 1st, you celebrated your first Canada Day! It was really hot that day, so we waited until the late afternoon to go to the beach with Shaun, Sarah and Sophia. It was your first time at the beach and you loved every second of it! You were so happy there and enjoyed checking everything out and experiencing lots of firsts! You really enjoyed sitting in the water, splashing and playing with the mud! Mommy tried her best to keep you from eating it, but you are fast! It was a great day, and you only got sick once...because you ate too much of mom's ice cream!!! You lasted until almost 8:00, then it was bed tome. Hopefully next year you will be able to see the fire works.
We went to visit Mary's house and since she is packing, you found a favourite new toy...a box!!! You had so much fun playing in the box, hiding in the box, peeking out!
In the last few days you have started to wave a lot and it even sounds like you are saying "hi", I will have get a video of it for next month!
You have been watching a lot of soccer this month as the World Cup has been on. On July 5th, we took you to your first night Whitecaps game. We were worried about how you would do as the game started at 7:00, but you were a champ!! You were making friends with everyone around us, waving at people and smiling the whole time. You even made it through the whole game, but had a meltdown and then crashed on the way home!
Here are some pics of some friends that you saw this month. You also had a playdate with Aislin and we didnt get a pic of you and Asher at the soccer game :(
Here a few of favourite random pics from the month!
