Little Guy on the Go!

I'm coming for ya!

Harry has officially entered the world of mobility! It is amazing how fast he has caught onto crawling...he is really picking up the speed! If he is not sleeping or eating he is on the move. He chased around poor Oscar tonight as he was inoocently trying to play with his rope toy. He didn't seem to mind too much. Hopefully he thought it was fun! Harry has also figured out how to pull up to a standing position on the couch. I saw him do it yesterday for the first time and I was shocked! I got excited for him, then he immediately lost his balance and landed with a thud! He probably surprised himself too. I am so happy that he is able to explore more of our little world here, but it sure is a lot harder to watch him! It cracks me up how he can find every little security breach we have in the house. He is such a curious little monkey!



Standing Tall

Sleeping is going a little bit better. He has only been getting up once a night and going back to sleep fairly well. That is a big improvement over last week so I am thankful for that! I don't know if it is because his teeth are almost all of the way in or if this is just a new pattern. I sure hope not. I got used to those restful nights very quickly!!

Travis reported that Harry did really well at swimming class this past Saturday. He was really alert and he even started to kick some! I am really excited to go (and observe only!) this weekend since I will be off. Speaking of being off, I actually have Thursday through Sunday off so I am really pumped up for my 4 day weekend! It will be nice to spend a lot of time with Harry and Travis and finish my Christmas shopping! It sounds like it will be perfect mall weather since we are in the middle of a big cold snap!

I realized the other day that I only take pictures of Harry when he is happy and I don't have hardly any pictures of him crying or upset. You have to have some embarrassing pictures of him to show his girlfriends, right?? I got a perfect opportunity the other night. I was feeding him his dinner and he was getting tired a little earlier than usual that night. I, for some reason, thought that would be a great time to try a new food. Chicken Noodle dinner to be exact. He flipped out on me. He would take a bite and act like he was going to gag. He ended up with it all over his face, in his hair, and even in his eyelashes. The only thing that calmed him down were some of his beloved bananas. The pictures don't do it justice! The poor little guy...he was crying, but as soon as he saw me get the camera he tried to stop and put on a happy face like I always try to make him do. He is such a good kid I can't even get a good picture of him wigging out!!
