Seven months have gone so quickly! Our family celebrated the occasion with some good old fashioned play time tonight.
Drew continues to love his Boppy Play Gym, even as he grows older. But instead of lying down and reaching for the toys, he sits up, eye-level with treasures that light up, sing, and squeak. But the real fun is when Dad bobs his head up and down like he's part of the contraption. (As you'll see, we have no pride when it comes to entertaining our kid.) Here are the Langner boys at play...
And at the end of every night, we wind down with splishing and splashing! Drew loves bath time, so we captured a bit of his favorite part of day... soaking Mom and Dad. And yes, that is Swasey you hear in the background. He was very disappointed that he was not asked to participate in bath time.
In other updates, Drew is becoming quite mobile! He pushes himself up into almost a full crawl position, then chickens out and decides to flail his arms and pivot on his stomach. His main mode of transportation continues to be rolling all over the room. We suspect Drew will be army crawling (or as we call it "Navy Crawling" - in honor of our good friend Jake!) any day now.
And like his parents, this kid can eat! Drew is moving up to Stage 2 foods - which means really interesting combos of fruits and veggies. Who knew that garden veggies would be so delish? No teeth just yet, and the teething pains have subsided for now. I'm in no hurry for the pearly whites to push through, as it's just one more sign that my little boy is growing out of control! And that gummy smile with the fist shoved in the mouth is just too cute.
One of our favorite developments is Drew's recognition of US... his parents! Whether we're picking him up from daycare, or coming home to him after work, we get big smiles, squeals, and his version of a kiss. It's pretty great payback.
And a blog sneak peak: Possible pumpkins, ghouls, and maybe even a dragon.
