It is so hot here! Of course I think it is hot everywhere else too so you may not have sympathy. But when one has a baby, it is difficult when you can't get out. Evan is getting grumpy in the afternoons as we don't go on our usual walk or visit to the park. Going to the grocery store is our big trip late in the day now.
Evan is pretty much crawling. He moves forward in different ways, sometimes on his knees. He also started pushing himself up into a sitting position the other day. He knew exactly what he did too because he was VERY pleased with himself.
So sitting up on his own puts a wrench in our bedtime routine. As soon as we leave the room Evan sits up and starts crying in his crib. It is as if he doesn' t know what to do from there. We go in after a few minutes and lay him down and he sits up again. We are going to modify his bedtime routine a bit due to this new skill. We usually rock him before bed for some snuggle time but now he just squirms too much for that to be relaxing. So I think now is the time to sit with a book or for some light play with a stuffed animal before bed.
He is growing fast and into everything. In one of the above pictures you will see he crawls over to the window to sit and watch the birds on the feeders.
Evan has also gone with us to visit friends and had them over. We saw Elisabeth and Sharat a few weeks ago. Elisabeth is due by the middle of next month. Sandrine stopped by to visit as well and Evan was very pleased.
