Andy & Ribs

Andy loves the little ribbon blankie I made for him - I put different sizes and textures of ribbons on it, but he always goes for the wide smooth white ribbons. He makes a funny noise as he rubs it on the palm of his hand - we can hear him making the noise over the baby monitor as he goes to sleep - it can go on a while. I tried to get him to do it here, and he did, but only for a second or two. But I think you get the idea...maybe. :) And, yes, he also likes to suck on his sleep sacks as he goes to sleep. Much to his dismay, we took away the sleep sacks yesterday. He's done fine, though, and only woke up crying once last night, but was calmed and back to sleep for the rest of the night within about 2 minutes.


Scary Witch

Kaylee has a "scary witch" voice that she does.  Usually she would just say, "helloooo," but when I tried to get her saying it to post a video, she kept acting super silly.  So here is one clip of her being "scary."  :)

Little Walking Andy!

Since a little before his birthday, Andy's been taking a few steps here and there. On 2/17 and 2/18 he would take 4-5 or so steps before falling forward into someone's arms or plopping down onto the floor. A few days later he walked 8-10 steps at a time, and once that day did about 20, but still was mostly just walking a few steps at a time here and there. Yesterday I took Andy, Kaylee and Erin to Catch Air and I guess Andy decided it was time to walk - maybe it's boring at home and he liked all the new things and bright colors at Catch Air? Who knows? Anyway, he walked for over 30 seconds (I know because the video I took is just over 30 seconds :) ) and did so again at home later that day. Something finally clicked! Though he still mostly crawls - it is still much faster!!
