Crawling

DJ has been crawling for over a week now and it has been quite an ordeal. Nothing is off limits to him or so he thinks. He has been on his hands and knees for about a month and Dave and I thought it wouldn't happen for a while, but out of the blue he just took off like he has been doing it for years. And yes, being the proud mama that I am I cried. My little guy is now mobile and is getting into everything! The cute thing about this is that he follows me wherever I go. He is just too cute. The bad thing is I can't get alot of things done. I have to wait til he's asleep. Oh well. This is him starting to take off!

Today I am sad to say that yesterday was DJ's last day nursing. It made me cry this morning when I denied him me and gave him a bottle instead. I know its natural to go through this and I know I can't nurse him forever (especially with those teeth!), but its hard. I'm starting to get a guilt complex and its not fun! Whatever happened to the carefree me? Where has she gone? I know this is for the best and I wouldn't change it for anything!

Swimming lessons

Today DJ started swimming lessons. He was alittle unsure the whole time we were in the water, but he didn't cry at all especially when we had to dunk their heads under water. Didn't phase him a bit. It helped that he had his friend Ella there and his new 'girlfriend' Charlotte. He sure was tired after that. Took a long nap...2 1/2 hours long. I guess swimming lessons tuckered the poor guy out!

Playdate at the park

Last weekend DJ met his 'girlfriend' Ella at the park for a playdate. They have known each other since they were 3 weeks old. DJ is only a day and a half older than her. The weather was sunny and a bit cool. Perfect park weather! As you can see they both enjoyed the swings, the sand, and eating socks and sand!!!
