All About William

Our little William has grown so much in the past few months; I thought it would be fun to share all that he's been up to. As of today it is official that he crawls!!! He has been able to crawl for awhile now, but has chosen to scoot on his stomach because it's much faster. Well, today he has crawled everywhere and there is no stopping him. This is a video clip of him crawling for the first time.

He also can pull himself up to anything and everything. He loves the new freedom this brings. I'm realizing that a toddler proofed house is not necessarily a baby proofed house. Just tonight he pulled open the drawer underneath the oven and closed it again with his hand still in it. It took off a layer of skin (luckily it was a thin layer and it didn't bleed, but it looks icky). William (and Hyrum) definitely keep me on my toes.

Another recent development for William is table food....yum yum! He loves to eat as you can see in the pictures below. He eats cheerios, puffed rice, pretzels, cooked carrots, peas, corn, scrambled egg yolks, pancakes, yogurt, macaroni and cheese, bread (oh, he loves bread), gummy bears (thanks to his daddy who gave him his first taste of sugar tonight during family home evening treat) and anything else he can get his hands on-rocks, toilet paper, wood chips, fingers (watch out). So far he shows no signs of food allergies, hurray! (Hyrum continues to be allergic to milk and eggs)

Aside from crawling and eating, William loves to do whatever Hyrum is doing. He plays blocks, cars, ball and piano with his big brother. It is so fun to watch him as he tries to do what Hyrum does. William is full of love and gives hugs and kisses always when I seem to need them most. He is such a delight to have in our home.
