Walking!!!

Still crawling a lot but walking a lot more. Took about 10 steps to me and then collapsed in my arms! 

Walking on a dream ....

Lots of walking happening. A couple of steps but way more if assisted. 

Grama is in town so Brian and I got to see a movie together and go Christmad shopping. 

Merry 1st Christmas Cruz

Unfortunately you have a runny nose but that didn't stop you. We went to Hectors for dinner and just got home. Its way past your bedtime. I'm rocking you. You have your head on my chest. I love these moments. You were and are the best present!  Mommy and Daddy love you!  

Slept through the night! Big time!!!

Cruz slept for almost 11 hours and woke. I fed him and he's back to sleeping!  Early Christmas present from my baby for sure!!!  

Clapping 12/13/12 9 mo 15 days old!

First steps

Not walking yet but did take a step on Sunday 12/9 and today 12/11. Also sleeping waaaaay better. 9 months seems to even out all the babby drama at least for a bit right :). I love you Cruzer!  

Growing up!

New foods: cheese and peaches

Sleeping: better. Cruz no longer likes to lay like a baby while nursing. Instead he climbs all over me. He ends up getting comfortable on his tummy. He's been sleeping longer since I've been "trying" to have him self sooth. He only needed me once last night.

Naps: still between 1.5 and close to 2 hours. It seems to take that long for him to take a nap though!  I usually have to leave him in his crib to calm down, fuss, and play to ultimately tire out for sleep. 

New skills: standing freely and gliding around furniture. He is also dancing when he is excited and heard music. 

We just got back from dfw for thanksgiving. Cruz stayed with Grama over night for the first time. He had a blast. They both did great :)
