Crawling....finally!

Zach started crawling last weekend! He doesn't much like it, just uses it to get where he wants to go and then wants to stand and walk. He is so close to walking on his own, probably in the next few weeks. Watch out!

Z's First Christmas

Christmas was in CT this year with the fam and it was great. Although Christmas is not the same without a little snow, i do have to say that i will pass on the snow any other time. Our trip up to CT was horrible. Canceled flights, sleepless night in a hotel room, lost luggage that showed up 2 days later. Once we got there all was well. My fam really enjoyed having Z around. Auntie didn't have to work so she was with us almost every day. We got the decorate Grammy's Christmas tree, make pieroges, bake and enjoy good home cooked meals. I think Z had a good time, he was not that into opening his presents but he loved his new mini rocking chair that Uncle Dan re-finished for him, loved ripping tissue paper into little bits which kept him busy for a while and last but not least LOVED the slot machine my parents have. All the lights and sounds and dropping coins! He would walk us over to it and then turn into your legs, meaning "pick me up" and then would watch and help us play. Z still loves to be "walked" around, hasn't gotten his balance yet and wants no part in crawling. Also as my mom remarked over Christmas he seems happiest when he's eating! Z is definitely my boy :)
