2 Girls and A Guy: May 2014

You:
-Are still wearing a 0-3 size onesie in the above picture....same as month 1!!
-Pull up on everything.
-Crawl really fast....and usually giggle while you're at it.
-Walk around furniture really well.
-Greeted us in the morning, on April 7th, by standing in your crib. We lowered it that night!
-You don't have a huge interest in walking by yourself. You love to walk while holding on to someone's hands, but the second we try to let go of you, you immediately sit down. You're very safe! If you ever feel unsure about your footing, you just sit. We think you can stand by yourself if you'd just try!!
-Dad's worried about your crooked left foot when you walk. :)
-Love to pull all of your toys out of the toy box.
-Like to mimic sounds and actions.
-Started to clap along when you realize others are doing it. You even clap when you hear it being done on TV.
-LOVE, love, love books.
-Sat through Hope & Holly's last music concert. You sat the entire time (granted we had some toys and snacks), but mom and dad enjoyed the whole thing!
-Will stand at the front door and look outside for 10-15 minutes watching the blowing trees and our new dog Lola.
-Love Lola. Anytime her name is mentioned, you instantly start looking out the windows trying to find her.
-Went to the park for the first time over Easter weekend. You liked the swing, but weren't so sure about the slide.
-Light up when you get up on Daddy's shoulders. It's one of your favorite places to be!
-Just within the last week or so of this month, you became quite the explorer.
-Are now content to crawl around and play by yourself for decent stretches of time.
-Are a pretty good eater! You love to eat (or at least try) whatever mom and dad are eating. It doesn't suffice to just put pieces on your tray. You want it straight from our plates. You especially love bread. You downed almost half of a hamburger, and several days later almost 3/4 of a bratwurst. Crazy.
-Also started drinking some whole milk. We're mixing it with breastmilk for the time being. You decided you were done nursing and wouldn't consider any formula. The whole milk has revolutionized bottle feedings!! You actually want to drink it, and sometimes want more. Thank you!
-Visited Sidney!! Mom was very excited about this trip. You and Sidney played well together. We know you're going to be best of friends! Ha. At least the moms are pushing for this. :)
-You're our little observer! Grandpa KH calls you "radar."

We were trying to get a candid shot of you reading the CMS program to publish in their next bulletin, but all we really did was catch Grandma yawning. :)
