What a lucky baby you are, Isaac — today your month-birthday falls on a federal holiday, so both mommy and daddy have the day off to hang out with you. This will happen again on your true birthday, which this year will be Labor Day! (Mommy did not give birth to you on Labor Day, however.)
And the most notable accomplishment of the holiday weekend is — you have become indisputably mobile! You are now crawling across the floor, so fast that we had to run out to Home Depot to get baby gates (in Germany, are they wie gehts?) to keep you from invading the kitchen and grabbing all the dangerous implements therein. You even are getting little patches of rug burn on your knees from going so fast — ouch! But that will get better. Life has changed in so many exciting ways over the last few weeks — you are getting better and better at the things you do, like feeding yourself (Cheerios, Veggie Booty, bread cubes, cheese squares), babbling (though still no discernable words yet), laughing (especially when you get to hug the squishy turtle cushion), and the aforementioned propelling yourself around the room. But mommy and daddy’s favorite new accomplishment has to be your amazing skill at playing peekaboo!
It’s been a busy few weeks otherwise, but you’ve been having lots of fun, especially with your friends.
Isabel visited for a while, and you learned to share! (sort of)
You went to a new playgroup and sat at a picnic table and swung in a swing!
And you learned to drive a new form of transportation: Daddy!
But mostly you’ve been just a cool baby!
