I love this time of year. I really do. I must admit, I was so excited for the snow we just had, and I was totally bummed that it melted so fast. Anyhoo, it's due time for an update. I've been a slacker. =)
Milo is on the GO! That boy does not stay still. Ever. He crawls everywhere, pulls up on everything. He just today discovered the kitchen cabinets, so I guess it's time to put away the cleaning supplies. I've been holding off on it because he never opened any of the doors, and we can't baby proof them since they really aren't ours. I guess we'll have to keep everything dangerous above Milo height! We've been giving Milo more and more real food, and he's getting rather independent about the whole thing. He really prefers to feed himself, and he likes to eat whatever anyone else is eating. Milo is also starting to get more teeth, so he's back to chewing on everything and anything he can get his hands on. He's getting really good at holding on with one hand and doing other things with the other. I don't think it will be very long before he starts standing on his own. And then we all know what happens next!
Now Cory and I may or may not actually have lives of our own. Cory has been working hard at school, and he's going to graduate in April. YAY!! We're super excited. I'm still trying to balance work and mommy-hood. It's harder than one might think. I am SERIOUSLY excited for Christmas. I can't even handle it. I'm starting to have strong desires to buy the entire toy aisle at Costco.
Next time, I'll have more recent pictures, but here are some from a while back. It was obviously summer time, since Milo is just in his onesies:
This is the first time Milo really crawled.
We found Milo all wrapped up in his blanket, so I grabbed the camera to take a picture.
Then he saw the wrist strap thingy hanging, and I guess he really wanted it!
Closer......closer.....
TA-DA! Here I am!!
And this is when Milo started pulling himself up on things.
