Nicholas Is 10 Months Old!

Posted by nattya61 on February 5, 2010

They really do grow up so fast!

Look at that little man! I can’t believe that he was born 10 months ago. Nicholas can do so many things now. He’s so good at crawling, and hates to be held anymore. He’d rather be on the floor getting into trouble. Such a boy! Mommy loves you, little Nicholas!

Why Does Crawl Mean Slow?

Posted by nattya61 on January 19, 2010

When we say the day hasĀ ”crawled” by, we usually mean it went by slowly. I think we need to change this. When most babies start to really crawl, they can go pretty fast. And finally, this includes Nick. He’s getting pretty good at moving around! Read the rest of this entry »
