His first time on the swing.  As you can see he wasn't sure how to feel about it.  After I shot this pic he raised his arms and looked at me with a "get me outta here" expression.  We moved unto playing in the sand instead.

Here he is looking very proud of himself because of his new abilities- standing and pulling kitchen drawers.  He is in complete exploration mode.

one month away from turning 1 year

Leon is crawling everywhere.  Gone are the days of backward scooting.  These days he charges fast forward and towards the direction of random things he should not be touching.  He loves plugs, cords, dirty slippers, Lucy's tail.... pretty much anything that is definitely hands off to babies.  We are baby proofing little by little.  As much as we want to go full force with making sure every spot in the house is safe- it just seems impossible at the moment with so many things going on.  All eyes are on baby and his play pen has gone super sized....

It's been almost 11 months since this 'lil boy came to our lives.  Every day he makes us laugh and he reminds us of the simple joys in life.

way back when...

Leon was crawling backwards.  He used to get stuck under toys with legs and furniture.  It's been so long since I've had a chance to update the blog so here I am posting some older photos....

Leon is 10 months old today!  He is so expressive and entertaining.  Ever since he began eating solids- meal time has become a fun filled event and it just keeps getting better.


This video was from this evenings' dinner.  He had his current fave foods- chopped up fresh strawberries and avocado.  Lucy growls at Leon at meal time demanding for food to be dropped on the floor.  


Anyone out there looking for some laughs- c'mon over for some free entertainment at the Cherubini's-  breakfast, lunch and dinner.
