10 Months and Offically OFF.....

So we have lift off.... Dominic started to crawl on November 7th.  He had been doing really good pulling himself up and scaffolding the couch.  Between that and walking with daddy or mommy holding his hands, we knew it was a matter of time.  So one night daddy lined up all his toys and was playing with them, making Dominic jealous and then all the sudden he was enticed to make the distance and crawl.

 

 

 

 

Now at daycare, with Nana and at home he is still pretty cautious about getting around but ALWAYS wanting to pull himself up so let us see where this next chapter takes us.... 

Mac's Apples and Much More...

We took Dominic for his 1^st Pumpkin experience at Mac’s Apple, family run orchard in Londonderry. This is where we took pregnancy pictures with the little bundle of joy too, so it was a special day for all of us.  It was such a beautiful day with the sun shinning, blue skies and a little wind. Dominic was so excited with all these new sights and things to touch, it was fun to watch him take everything in.

                           

 

The last weekend in November, we took Dominic to his first soccer game at Keene State.  He LOVED watching all the boys kick the ball around and had fun with daddy cheering on his college team.

 

On Halloween, Dominic was “SUPERMAN” and loved spinning around on the hardwood floors.  We had many little kiddos stop by for trick-err-treating and Dominic loved it but there were a few costumes he did not like and cried a little. So to cheer him up, we danced to monster mash and played with all the toys.

Dominic also attended his first birthday party for his cousin, Frederik's 2nd Birthday.  Dominic played with all the other children that were there, goofed around by pulling himself up on the kiddos as they played around.  It was fun to spend time with family and celebrate these events together.

We also finally got to meet his future girlfriend “Cayleigh Hanlon. It was a afternoon full of giggles, belly time and just poking each other as they got to know each other.

Happy 10 months to Mr. Dominic!!!  During his monthly photo shot, he decided to read his books which he LOVES to do now and moved around non stop. His favorite are the books that you can touch and feel the different materials. He also thought it would be good idea to break out the Boston Red Sox hat.

At daycare, Dominic is much happier now and making friends....even close girlfriends.  He is learning to clap his hands now along with giving high five and kisses.  It has only been 2 months, but already, Dominic is picking up on many things the older kids are doing. He loves his table that has lights and buttons let him play with and then I tease him to make his way over to the couch for an other bright toy.  This has been a work in progress but Dominic has been doing really good at moving his feet.  At this point who knows if he will crawl or walk first.. ..lets take bets??//??
