What have we been up to this month? A lot of learning and growing... D is a little bundle of energy so the moments he falls asleep... it is a moment of rest for every one!
He loves looking at books and can spend a food bit of time pulling them off the shelf and perusing them. He is gentle with them and understands how to turn the pages.
Momentary rest for all. Look at those lips!
We had our first date night concert to see Rod Stewart without D which means grandparents had bedtime duty! He did great!
We had three Penner kiddos over for a Sunday afternoon and D loved hanging out with them and I think they were just as entertained.
We love going to the safari park and waving at all the animals.
We also enjoyed seeing the bird show.
While Joe and Lori were here visiting from Egypt, we went to Disney for the Oogie Boogie fest
We all dressed up and enjoyed a fun evening out.
D's first amusement park ride was midway mania with daddy! He loved it.
Cant say the same for the carousel... it was great until it started to move. Daddy had to jump up with him and hold him for the duration of the ride!
He loved the Mickey and Minnie halloween stage show.
And he got his first visit Disney pin. With the exception of 2 naps... he stayed up until 10:30 when we headed home.
First time trying an apple cider donut. Not a huge fan!
We also went apple picking while Joe and Lori were here. D loved eating the fruits of his labor!
He is an absolute delight!
He may get messy eating but he enjoys cleaning up.
More books. Found the Wonky Donkey book at a consignment sale... it is phenomenal!
We are learning that with a little sometimes things dont go as planned and you have to slow down and smell the roses.
And some moments just play on the dirt.
And when they fall asleep ... you let them sleep.
This has been the month of getting up at 5am to see daddy off for work and then these two play in the bonus room while mommy supervises and wakes up!
With that early of a wake up... sometimes it is hard to stay awake while we finish our lunch.
Love cute exploitative moments! They are truly little only once and they grow up so fast!
This month we have been working on more use of utensils and sippy cups. Still work I progress but I do have to say this kid loves mommas enchiladas and he has finally started eating white potatoes. He still only has 4 teeth... 2 top and 2 bottom but that has not limited him on what he eats. We are expecting more teeth coming in with all the drool and fussies.
For his 11 month birthday we took down 7 trees and he loved watching the Bob cat working in the yard. We would be outside more but it is in the upper 90s still.
