SO BEHIND...

So, so, sorry it has taken me so long to update. A LOT has been happening!
On the home front:

• The condo is under contract!!! We are closing June 30th. Thank goodness!
• We bought a new dining room table. How nice to finally be able to do something at our "new" place after the financial constraints of the last few months. I am looking forward to new WINDOWS, doors, light fixtures, and window treatments that were not chosen by a bachelor!

On the Daniel front (MUCH to report):

• Sprouted second tooth - 8 months, one week, first tooth
• Pulling up on EVERYTHING (this last week)
• Scooting backwards (week before last) and rolling all over his crib
• First ear infection (Thursday)
• First beach outing - loved sand, hated water
• Likes swimming pool (the swimming lessons were worth it)
• Crawled forward (Father's Day!)
• Babbling (this week has come on strong) - "ba, ba, ba" "ma, ma, ma" "da, da, da"
• Finger food is a hit! Is using BOTH hands! This week - chopped grapes, veggie puffs, chopped green beans, chopped banana (instead of mushed)
• Loves to bounce in the doorway jumper and in his crib when he pulls up.
• Favority toys are his robot monkey and SpongeBob plastic ball.
• Wearing 12 months sized clothes, weighed 19.9 pounds on Thursday
• AMAZES us EVERYDAY.

On the personal front:

• am getting 20 more au pair families - I will be an expert sooner than I thought! If you know anyone interested in learning more about the au pair program for childcare, just le tme know.
