Crawling to Standing- ALREADY?!

It was not long ago that I posted how Roman had taken up crawling. Well since then, the only crawling he has done is to get to an object of choice to use as a tool to help him stand up. He is much more interested in standing than crawling but also has had to learn the painful lesson that not all objects are made to pull up on. We have learned a lot about falling in these past few days as well.

he simultaneously is teething- so his goal seems to just find something new to chew on. Here he is chewing on the strap of his chair.



As i went to get him after he woke up from his nap, he wanted to show off his newest accomplishment- standing up in his crib.

He thinks this is pretty funny but mom is not amused when he spends half of his nap time perfecting this new trick. We are hoping the novelty will wear off before too long.

"You talking about me?...this was nothing- you should see what I do when you aren't looking!"


We took the liberty tonight of lowering his crib to the last notch (which was only one more down) and hoping that any new accomplishments ,such as climbing out of the crib, will wait to be discovered.
"I'm big stuff, you know. If you don't know it, you really should."

"Falling down onto a nice mattress is much more fun than falling on the hard floor. I wish mommy would put mattresses everywhere."

A silly man who never ceases to keep us smiling. I feel so privileged to stay home and watch him discover all these new things. God has truly blessed us and i am very thankful for a husband who works so hard so I can stay home with him.
