Numbers, Numbers, Numbers

Christopher loves tools. All sorts of tools. Yesterday he picked up a tape measure and it provided hours of  entertainment. As bath time approached we began to measure things in the bathroom. I showed him how he could measure one of the tiles around the shower. "Look Christopher, one, two three, four - the tile is four inches wide." He then took the tape measure and placed it on the tile. I was busy getting him ready for the bath and realized he was measuring by saying, "number, number, number, number!" Too funny - he's right, there are lots of numbers on a tape measure.

Springtime fun

7 months and counting for Charlie

And here we are at 7 months:

• Such a delight and a happy baby.
• He fought his first 2 ear infections - and not very successfully. 
• He loves to eat all sorts of veggies and fruits.
• We've enjoyed some days at home - and weathered the March tornados all snuggled up together - and some days out and about.
• Charlie made another visit to the Arboretum.
• He's trying to scooch around on the floor.
• He's sitting up better and better in his highchair.
• He weighs about 17 lbs now.
