Those Pearly Whites: His top two teeth have finally broken through (how cute!) and in checking those out, I saw a third bottom tooth is also coming up quickly.
Getting' Around: And so it begins. In the last few days, Christian has really learned a lot. Suddenly he was able to pull himself up here and there … and now he's climbing on anything he can – like boxes. Another good reason to get unpacked ASAP. This morning he crawled into the bathroom and when I checked on him, he'd pulled himself up to the side of the empty bathtub and was looking in. This weekend, Liz and I were visiting when I turned around to find he'd started climbing the stairs. Oh my goodness!
Chowtime: I was wondering when Christian would figure out he can put food into his mouth on his own … and then one day he did it. He's now a pro! I've been making food for Christian here and there and he seems to enjoy it. I still use the commercial baby food, too – depending on how much time I have. Sometimes he eats really well, other times he doesn't. It can be frustrating at times, but we get through it.
Location, Location, Location: Christian now sleeps in his own room, which is good for us and good for him. Many times he wakes up … its still dark (he's an early riser) and he's just sitting in his crib looking at whatever book we put in there the night before. He's become quite good with his board books … he knows to turn the pages – if we're with him or if he's looking at a book on his own.
Other Tidbits: Because Christian is so active now, its become quite a challenge for me to watch him during the day and keep up with work. Consequently, most nights are spent catching up on work with bedtime for me around midnight being the norm. I am so envious of moms who don't have to commit their time to an outside job. Christian is at such a fun age right now, and when I'm not working and focuing on 27 different things, I am so relaxed and just enjoy him so much! He's such a wonderful little boy!
Christian has also upgraded to an inflatable bathtub. Its give him a lot more room and he even has bath toys now! 
We took him on his first playground adventure:
