Lego fun!

It's a hot day... Nearly 100. Too hot to play outside, so we're inside playing with Legos!

And check out Andy... Maybe he'll skip crawling!?!

Six months old!

Yesterday marked 6 months since Andy's birth! It feels like he's been with us forever (in a good way!).

Here's what he's been up to:
Sitting up
Almost crawling
SMILING
Hugging and giving "kisses"
Sucking his thumb, left thumb exclusively
Eating! (bananas, oatmeal, peas, brown rice, avocado, sweet potato, carrots, apples, peaches, plums...)
Making friends at daycare
LOVING his big brother
Sitting outside (in the grass is preferable to on a blanket)
Swinging
Babbling
Sucking his toes
Watching animals intently
Sleeping well (in bed 12 hours/night with 1-2 wake ups)
Still teething, but no teeth

Here's a video of him playing. I often set him down with a basket of toys, and he'll play happily for quite awhile. He really is a very happy guy!!

First day of school

Today was Ben's first day of "real" school. He will spend three years at Redbud Montessori, and we're all psyched! Yesterday was a brief orientation day, and all of the kids received shirts:



Ben lives the construction trucks! There us a building project going on next to the school, so each morning we watch diggers, rollers, dump trucks, and "excabators" at work!

Almost crawling!

Andy is getting very close to crawling...


He's also very good at pulling himself up on pretty much anything in sight!
