The Little Tornado

Since Jason and I have not been posting lately, there is so much to say about this little guy right now. He is moving fast and has caused us to rearrange our living room yet again. He stands on his own occasionally and actually took 3 steps at Grandma's and Grandpa Strait's house on Sunday. We have not witnessed any steps alone since then. He has become a great eater after a slow start. We have decided that he just was not a fan of baby food. He loves to eat cheerios, frozen peas, tortillas and pita bread. At daycare he is eating all kinds of new foods with gusto.

I took these pictures the day he discovered the rubbermaid containers in the kitchen. He has been playing around that cabinet for awhile (we have to take dog food away from him quite often, because this is were Lou's food is). Anyway, I was wondering when he would find the food containers and on this morning, he opened the cabinet, peeked inside and proceeded to open it wider and within seconds he had pulled everything out. He loves to explore around the house and open drawers, doors and cabinets. So...we are having fun chasing him around the house and trying to figure out how to effectively baby proof our house. He also loves to go outside. If the door is open, he crawls as fast as he can to try to crawl outside.
This picture below was taken on a recent walk.
