1. Derek officially "hands/knees" crawls = gets into everything
2. Along with crawling, he is a climber (climbs over Fletch, through our tables, underneath the bed-he figured that if ducked his head low enough he could squeeze underneath the bed getting back out was the hard part, climbs on the dishwasher door when open, this kid will climb over anything-pray this is a phase and he doesn't continue this as he gets older)
3. We got sick a lot = no sleep for mama, steam room bathrooms, nebulizer treatments, antibiotics, etc, etc
4. It snowed 20 inches mid-February (the most I have ever seen in one snow fall in my entire life-it was crazy)
5. I went to the zoo, Ikea, and Costco in Cincinnati
6. Derek has his 2 bottom and 2 top teeth
7. Had fun with Grandma and Grandpa Falk for a couple of days
8. We had to move the crib to the lowest position and take out his bumper since he almost tried to climb out of it in hopes of reaching his frog humidifier
9. Our little guy has become quite the little eater. There is nothing this little man doesn't really like...including paper
That is us in a nutshell. Just our day to day life but man does our little guy make me smile. He brings me so much joy. Just a few pics to share our story...
20 inches of snow later...
He loves the frog
One of his favorite things to do, play in the dog's food/water bowls
Helping me with the dishes
Our little sick man
Again with the dog bowls (mind you there is water all over the floor at this point that Derek is just crawling through)
Fletch's new favorite spot so he can catch all the crumbs
2 sharp bottom teeth = this (now we have covers over the top railings)
He is set on getting those darn rocks (tongue out and all...just like Dad and Grandpa Falk)
Enjoying the zoo
Driving home from Spring Break...would not recommend a 9+ hour drive by yourself with a little person who doesn't like their carseat. He was a trooper
