Fast changes in the past 6 weeks! Sylvan is not only crawling everywhere but working on standing up and "cruising" (the technical term for walking along the edge of the furniture). We've rapidly figured out the weak spots in our childproofing, particularly where it relates to cat food and heavy books... It's been a great summer, so much fun discovering new things with him. He's had many first experiences - the lake (though not in the water yet), the ball pit (NOT his favorite experience), public fountains and water in general, hiking, trampolines (safely in dad's arms), and gardening with mom in the rain. He is a big boy - at 10 months over 20 pounds and almost 30 inches long/tall. He's becoming a good eater and certainly has an appetite, though is still challenged with the pincher grasp and actually ingesting solid food. All in good time!
