Mondays With Crosby


At 11:24 am, Crosby Fox turned 47 weeks old!!! I cannot believe there are only 5 more weeks to document in this year. Where has the time gone? This has been the fastest 47 weeks of my life. He is going to be driving soon, I just know it...
Can you find the common denominator in the following pictures?
I am not sure what the deal is with the tongue sticking out so much these days! He seems to do it when he is exerting himself or thinking really hard. Maybe having the tongue out helps him concentrate. I am not sure. It sure does create a slobbery chin and wet neck!!!

In case you need more proof that our baby won't be a baby much longer...
While at a friend's house Saturday night, Crosby was introduced to a walking toy. (aka... a doll stroller! Thanks for sharing Kathryn!! :)) Anyway, he took off across the floor on the first attempt, showing lots of balance and control. I have known one of these would be useful for a while. I have been holding out on getting him one of these toys for 2 reasons: 1.) the grandparents got something similar for a Christmas present 2.) I am not ready for him to walk. Clearly, he is ready to move!!! Wouldn't you know our friends had this toy in their garage and decided to donate it to Crosby's toy stash. Looks like my plan to keep him immobile was thwarted!!!
Maybe we will just use it this way for now...
After multiple purchases and multiple returns, we finally have the little one safely locked out of the stairs. It looks like someone else is caged up too!!!
