Oh Crap

He is climbing... and he was extremely happy about it. There was a lot of squealing and laughing accompanying this escapade.

More Tricks!

Ok, taking these photos was a little dicey. I had to take them while making sure he wouldn't fall. I succeeded. He actually has pretty good balance and enjoys playing standing up.

Back from the Gym

We started a new type of class today, called MomSWIM. I get a workout and Jack gets to explore the pool and hear lots of songs. It is a pretty original program from what I have seen. So far the instructor is fantastic, which of course makes or breaks most classes. She is very engaging while being educational - we learn some ASL. I think this despite that she appears to be a size 2 with a totally flat stomach and is 15 weeks pregnant with her second! Normally I hate those people;)

It is at the Arlington Girls and Boys Club which has an amazing number of programs. Many of which I will grown into in about a year and can't wait.

Lift off

Today is the first time I have seen Jack try to get to his hands/knees. He isn't quite there, but can get his tummy off the ground briefly and has started moving backwards. I will try to get video soon.

Fine Dining

I have been to restaurants quite a few times, but this is the first time I got to sit in restaurant-supplied seating.


This looks so good I will eat it.


Where's the food already??

New Face

This weekend I got to meet yet another cousin (ok, once again, she is technically my first-cousin-once-removed). We had a lovely visit. Sadly, for me, I won't get to see her for awhile - she is leaving soon for a semester abroad South Africa!

Bon Voyage Juliette!
