Happy (belated) Thanksgiving! Dominic celebrated his first Thanksgiving with his first tastes of table food. He liked the few bites of Turkey and mashed potatoes, but not more than his favorite snack - puffs. Overall it was a nice and relaxing day. As reported in October, Dominic started officially crawling on November 2nd and has been off and "running" ever since. Within a week he had mastered getting up the small step from the family room to the kitchen - and access to the whole house. So out came the baby gates! By mid November he was pulling up to stand and shortly thereafter began walking along the fireplace, couches, and everything else. Nothing is safe in our house anymore!
Dominic and I (Kristi) started a fun new activity for our Wednesday's home together - swimming! Although the original plan was to hold off until the new year, we were hooked after a free trial lesson in early November. Dominic was a bit aprehensive the first day, but he is having more and more fun every week. Thanks to Aunt Karen for finding the pool and coming with us every week to help out and cheer on our little swimmer!
