Learning to Walk!!

Manny is working hard on learning to walk!! He really doesn't get anywhere except flat on his face, but he gets an A for effort!! He has mastered standing for about 10 seconds. We'll get there eventually. Here is a video where we tried to capture his amazing standing abilities; enjoy!

Manny's big summer!

Sorry it has been so long since we updated. Manny has been a very busy boy this summer! He's getting so big and SO fun. On July 25th he will be 8 months old!! Such a big boy. We went to the doctor last week; he weighed 21 lbs. and was 29" long. He just knows that he can walk. It seems to make him very mad that he can't! He will be running all over before we know it. Da Da, night night, uh oh, and every once in while, Ma Ma are very big phrases around the house these days. Manny carries on all kinds of converations with Franny and his pacifier, but those are in a language we have yet to learn! His words and sounds are becoming so fun to him now that he has some teeth. His middle bottom two are in now and one of top middle has just broken the skin. He has been quite a trooper through all of his teething.

Manny has loved swimming this summer. He goes under and splashes like a big boy! We took him swimming this afternoon. Now he is sacked out on the couch beside me! Above and below are some pictures and a video of our afternoon swim. All of the new pictures on his page are from this summer since June. We'll try to do a better job keeping everything up to date!
