Picture of the Day: 7/17/12

I'm in bed, just go away and let me sleep!

Drinking Bathwater

This is a little long and mostly just hanging in the bathtub. About a 40 seconds in he drinks the water coming out of the faucet and is so pleased with himself that it's hard not to also be pleased with him.

Someone loves raspberries!!

Playground fun with the car

Simon is walking a whole lot now. Ever since his birthday when Kiki and Morgan had him walking between them for almost an hour he's been a walking champ. He decided this morning on his walk that HE wanted to push the car. He walked his car all the way around the playset (with some help on the corners). Then off to the park (I pushed) to swing. 

Back to Chicago!

Simon passed out as soon as he was buckled in and for the first time EVER we were able to transfer him from the car seat to his crib without waking up! He has been a very sleepy baby, I would say he had a blast in Boston!

First Word is.... Up!

Yesterday Simon started saying his first word! It's adorable. He initially was just saying 'ph', but obviously trying to imitate you with the intention of you picking him up. Jenn worked on it yesterday with him and got him to the 'bphp' stage. By the end of a day of focused up-ing, Simon had it!

This morning we tried again and initially I got just the p sound again, but before I left for work he did the full word. Another amazing milestone!  When we can catch it on video we will post it.
