A Crazy Toddler

There has been a serious lack of blog posts around here.

Why?

Will has turned into a toddler overnight. The following pictures show what happened in the space of about 5 minutes.

He now pulls out everything he can get his hands on. He is now extremely good at standing, pretty good at walking, and somewhat good at climbing. All of those new accomplishments have increased the number of things that he can reach. Unfortunately.

My day is spent running around after him and picking up everything that he pulls out. Or, sometimes, I just leave it all out and then quickly run around and pick it all up right before Daniel gets home. Or, occasionally, I am so tired that I don't pick it up at all (and then Daniel helps me).


My solution:
Stay out of the house as much as possible.

Here we are at the mall. He was crawling like a maniac all over the place.

(This cheesy smile shows off his 7.5 teeth!)

Here we are at the library. We got to Baby Storytime on Tuesdays. These pictures are a couple months old, but we do go every week.

Here we are again at the library. Sometimes, we go just to play with the puzzles and read some new books. Oh, did you notice that it is the exact same outfit as our mall pictures? Yep. It was our second outing that day.

Here we are at the pool. These pictures are a few months old, but I will get some new ones next week.

(Will and Annika both sleeping after a day at the pool.)

Will is a really social baby. He especially loves to see and "talk" to other babies and kids. He can be pretty delightful (when he isn't pulling out every object in our house).
