7 months!

Once again it is better late than never! Simon turned 7 months in September and is as cute as ever.  The photo shoots are not getting any easier though. He likes to take off the sticker and poke poor old teddy. But I think we got some cute ones nevertheless!


 With great age comes some mobility. I definitely can't trust Simon to stay in one place any more.  Shortly after this photo was taken, Simon was half way across the room. He can wriggle backwards but is not crawling. I definitely consider this to be a good thing.
 A couple of weekends ago we had free tickets to watch Houston Dynamo play. So, since we were going downtown anyway, we met Evie's friend Abby and her Mum, Michelle, at the Aquarium. Simon had his first ride on a merry go round and on a ferris wheel. He loved all of it!  Here is Evie with Abby (who is 6 1/2. Evie is BIG).
Auggie and Evie decided to feed the stingrays. I declined. Basically you hold a little fish with your hand in a fist and the stingray will come and eat the fish. It was a bit weird. Here they are feeding from Auggie!
 And here's cute boy at school. Simon is sitting up really well now and can get back onto his tummy from sitting without face planting into the floor. He can't go the other way though! But the ladies at school work really hard with them so maybe he will hit some more milestones in the next couple of months. Or, maybe he will keep sitting happily on his bum.
 Two sillies of Evie. On the second photo she is showing off her new thermal headband. Cute.


 This was at school today. Simon was hiding from me behind the toys. It was a fun day and I was a little sad to have to go back to work.
 And finally, two sillies using the doidy cup! Simon is doing really well with it! Good boy. Simon is advanced in most things that involve food of drink. He's SUCH a PIGGY. he got very upset yesterday when he dropped his rusk. He's tried everything from parsnip to salmon and likes everything except mashed potato! Maybe he was holding out for gravy.
And on that note,

Bye for now xxx
