Hello

This is just a quick post to say hello and post a few pics from Enzo's 11 month-day. After wondering if he was ever going to crawl, he is now not only crawling but crawling everywhere fast! He's also climbing and scaling walls and furniture. He is still super curious and spends so much time inspecting how things work. He also loves shoes and I'm constantly redirecting him. Why do shoes taste so good to babies? As I posted previously, he is starting to feed himself and loves the messy one. We are back in swimming lessons which he seems to be enjoying. Now it's time to build up his confidence and eliminate the fear that he has from not being in the water for awhile. We also started a music class called Luistergoed. It is a very small class size with about six other babies and moms/caretakers and the instructor. There is no talking and the teacher plays music while singing and brings out different instruments from around the world for the children to play. Enzo loves it!! My quiet boy that likes to stay close to mom in group settings changes into the chattery boy crawling around, playing instruments, and interacting with the other babies. It's so much fun to see this other side to him so I'm really happy we found this class. Okay, here some of the latest photos.

I love it when he tries to peek around to see me.

Still peaking.

A small smile.

 The block has been dropped. He's getting ready to come see what I'm doing.


I always have a helper these days.

Inspecting before mom takes it all away.

May I help you?

 
This is so not child-friendly. My favorite kind!!

The forbidden favorite shelf.

Trying to get a peak out the window. He's keeping track of all the neighbors. His grand aunt would be proud.
