9 months old



Wild Weekend

Time just flew by this weekend. On Saturday morning Cam went to play paintball and came back with a few welts on his arms and shoulders. On Saturday afternoon Dani went to a friend's stagette party and didn't come home until after midnight!

Sunday morning Chance was a bit grumpy (lately afternoon naps are the enemy). Also we can see 3 teeth that appear very close to erupting, so maybe that's the reason. Anyways, we were busy keeping him occupied. We went for a family walk in Fish Creek Park on Sunday afternoon and left a sleeping Chance in his Chariot while we took a dip in the river. Next time we will remember bathing suits and towels, but it was so warm out that we were both completely dry by the time we got home!

We stopped at a park and Chance took another solo swing - he loves it, he just pulls his little legs up and squeals!










2 videos to share:

Bathing Suit Blahs Begone!

I love Sears.ca. They have a virtual model tool there where you can enter your height, weight, skin colour, hair colour, hairstyle and even customize your facial features (thin mouth, wide nose, etc.) to come up with a virtual "you". You can then choose from any of the swimsuits that Sears sells, so you'll have an idea whether they'll look good on you or not. I was surprised at how accurate the model was, she even has the same stocky thighs as me!

Morning Report

Naps? We don't need no stinkin' NAPS!

Time Goes By!

The beginning of self-weaning?

Chance would not nurse this morning. In fact, he would not even wake up, what a sleepyhead (I have been waking him at 7 if he is not up yet as I don't want to encourage late sleep-ins because it will be rough on him then when it comes to go to the day home in just a few months). He slept through the night again, what a relief too!

Once he got the dazed look off of his face I offered him a boob and he just kind of played with it and then started babbling away. He didn't outright refuse (scream, cry, spit), but he sure wasn't interested in nursing!

We have 2 more teeth coming in very soon, I'm sure. Chance's poor gums look stretched to the limit, but all in all he's been very cheerful.
