Can't Nobody Hold Me Down...

So, our little boy is crawling now! Well, mostly crawling anyway. He can definitely moved across the floor, some times quicker than others. Luca army crawls with his tummy on the floor and inch worm crawls lifting his tummy and bottom up, wiggly his toes forward and then flopping himself forward. Both methods are surprisingly efficient. Luca's also pulling himself up and loves to stand for 5-10 minutes at a time...and once in a while cruises down the couch.

The last week, Luca has seemed to enjoy and discover his thumbs in a whole new way. Pressing his thumbs on the floor, the table, on people's faces, and most entertainingly, on each other. Loud squeaks, long shrieks, and loads of "ga" now ring through our house on any given day, the occasional "da" and "ca" and , when Belle walks in the room, a quiet "cccaaat."

He's getting better at picking up finger foods with two fingers, but still has trouble getting the item to his mouth without assistance. He likes to hold the food in his hand while I feed him.

Unfortunately, Luca has a little cough right now and is a little congested. We're hoping it goes away soon, as he seems somewhat frustrated at all the snot wiping and is not sleeping as well :(
