Playing the Piano

Jonathan discovered the piano a few weeks ago. He's barely tall enough to reach the keys so if you look at him from above, you can just see his fingers moving up and down. Earlier this week, I sat at the piano and let him play for while. Jonathan found that feet work just as well as fingers for playing!

Grandma's Visit

Grandma came for a visit this weekend. She brought Jonathan one of the toddler toys she has at her house. It's a car that can either be ridden on or opened up to push. Jonathan thought it was the best thing ever!

Crawling Surprise

This video cracks me up! I was trying to get Jonathan's crawling on video so I put his sippy cup next to me to encourage him to crawl. He eventually did, but it's the end of this video that makes me laugh!

10 Months Old

Jonathan turned 10 months old on Thursday. He weighs about 21 pounds now and is slowly moving from 6 month-size clothes to 9 month. He has two teeth poking through. He crawls all over and pulls himself up to everything. One of his new favorite tricks is to pull himself up and then start bouncing up and down. He really loves it if he can bounce and make something move, like his walker or the laundry basket.

Jonathan falls down occasionally, but he's really careful about putting his hand down when he wants to go from standing to crawling.

Jonathan loves to talk to himself in the hallway mirror.

Can you see those teeth? I know it's hard...but one is on the top and one is on the bottom. They are not all the way in yet, but the tops are all the way through.

Jonathan thinks he's too big for his walker now. He will endure it if you put him in it occasionally, but he likes it better when he is out of the walker and can use it to stand up or to eat snacks out of the tray.
