Climbing Trees

Last week Joey climbed his first tree! Such a great accomplishment for any little boy. I was inside feeding Livia when I looked out the window and saw Joey sizing up the tree. When he ran away from the tree at frist I thought, "Phew, he's not going to try and climb it"...then I noticed he was baaacccckkk with his little tricycle. He put the bike at the base of the tree, stood on top of it and climbed up into the tree. I quickly ran outside with the camera, to be close by in case he fell, but more importantly to get pictures of my boy's first tree climb! He was so proud of himself!

Livia

Here is Livia showing off what she can say and do...

Livia is 9 months

Livia turned 9 months old last week! Wow, how time is flying. She continues to be such a good baby and always joyful. When I go and get her out of her crib she smiles big and says, "Iiiii." I'm pretty sure she's saying, "Hi". She says "dada" and "mama" and is waving goodbye. She is also scooting on her bum all over the place, she's not interested at all in crawling. The other night she got into the kitchen, opened a drawer and pulled out some plastic bags. She is definitely on the move and ready to explore, such a fun stage!
