A quick TJ update. He's now a walker! He still likes to crawl since he can go so much faster but he's walking more and more each day. He's very cautious but I think he likes his new found independence. We've been going to the pool several afternoons a week and TJ just can't get enough. He LOVES the water and tries so hard to swim by himself. He still isn't talking besides the occasional Mama or Dada but his point and grunts are fairly effective. His favorite thing to do currently is take apart his duplo blocks. I spend a lot of time putting blocks together so he can take them apart.
This past weekend was spent down at the lake.
My Uncle Dave and Aunt Thuy came down from Minneapolis with their new little boy Vinh. Isn't he a doll??
TJ didn't take too much notice of him besides this one occasion where he enjoyed pushing him in the swing. I was surprised, he wasn't at all jealous of me holding Vinh.
We spent a good part of the weekend on the boat
With TJ manning the cooler
When he wasn't too busy going in and out of his hidey hole
He kept nice and cool in his pool (on the boat on the lake, funny huh?)
and Jim enjoyed it too!
TJ went swimming in the lake for the first time! And he loved it! The lifejacket, not so much...
The kid loves to splash
The weather was perfect, the fireworks grand and the boat parade um, well, was on Bourbon Street?
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!
Happy Independence America!
