AJ's Started to Crawl, and Get Teeth!

Last week, AJ was very busy. He crawled a couple of "steps" last Tues, just 3 times, but now it is becoming his favorite mode of transportation.
Yesterday he crawled all the way from my bathroom to the kitchen to come find me! (for those of you not familiar with our place's layout, that's about 25ft) He thinks it's so funny when he comes around a corner and spots someone, so Peekaboo has a whole new dimension now! Since he's started to crawl, there is a lot less whining and yelling for me, since now he can just come find me (and the cabinets!) Andy has also moved into a whole new level of childproofing...

On Thursday AJ and I hosted our biggest-ever playdate with most of our Chicago stay-at-home-mom friends. In total there were 10 moms and 12 kids, including AJ and I! We all had a lot of fun and thanks to all the moms for contributing, we also had a great lunch. Here are 2 cute shots of AJ with his friend Jack playing at one of his favorite places, and one that shows a little bit of the chaos.















Yesterday was a big day in another way too...AJ's first tooth poked its way through! Say goodbye to that cute little toothless grin. I'll miss it, but I think it's fun and exciting to see how fast he is changing. Here's the best shot I've been able to capture of it so far...
The second tooth is on its way too, right next to the first. They are his bottom middle teeth...what it the technical name for those, Brandon? ;)
