Lawrence is 11 months old!

Eleven months already- where has the time gone??

Lawrence is so close to walking, he will take a couple steps when he lets go of our hand or furniture but then drops/squats down to crawl. He climbs on everything! but has at least now learned how to get back down by himself. He says 'mama', 'dada', and 'ball'. He loves peaches and does not like bananas. 

Lawrence is 10 months old!

Well I missed posting his nine month photos so I got those up at the same time as I am posting his ten month photos, and he turns ELEVEN months tomorrow which means it's time to take some new pictures! Hopefully I'll get those up sooner but I can't promise anything. ha!
Lawrence is finally getting his 8th tooth, the fourth one on the bottom. It has taken a loooong time. He isn't walking yet but can stand by himself for a few seconds and has taken a couple steps. This summer he we have taken him to the pool and splash pad a few times and he seems to really like the water. The first time in the pool he fell asleep while I was holding him.

Lawrence is my climber. He tries, with success more and more, to climb onto (and out of) everything. He is much more daring than Charles was when it comes to that stuff and he gets into everything. He loves to swing at the park and follow Charles around. I pray that they will grow to be very close friends and watch out for each other.I can't believe how fast the time is going.. he will be a year old in just a few more weeks!

Lawrence is 9 months old!

Lawrence is 8 months old

Lawrence has mastered crawling and has recently started pulling himself up on furniture. He has SEVEN teeth! Ever since getting the first bottom two while in New York they just keep coming! He has tried avocados, peas, sweet potatoes, bananas and applesauce. He did not like the peas. He says mama-mama-mama and other 'baby talk' but I especially love hearing him say 'mama' even though he may not realize what he is saying quite yet. Lawrence lights up whenever Charles come in the room.
You melt my heart again and again my little Lawrence. I love you.

Lawrence is SEVEN months old!

We went to Brooklyn a few weeks ago and I still haven't posted about our time there yet. I promise I will, but first I wanted to share Lawrence's seven month photos. He is so cute! Lawrence is sitting up well on his own and he rolls all over the place. He can pivot and scoot a little to help him get where he wants to go. He can get himself up on all fours and has started to rock back and forth- I am sure he will be crawling soon. He loves to babble and says 'bah bah bah' over and over- I love hearing his sweet voice.

Lawrence is SIX months old

I can't believe my baby is six months old already. He is laughing and rolling over and he's pretty steady sitting up on his own too. He loves watching Charles, touching faces, and sucking on his toes. And when he is happy or likes something he makes this gurggly purring noise. It's so cute!

Lawrence is FIVE months!

Sing Like Never Before

Heard this song on the radio the other day and was totally blessed by it. Wow. It's amazing.
