What a lover!

Nolan is quite the little smoocher now. If you ask for a kiss, he will kiss you and make this cute little smacking noise after. Let me clarify: it's more of an open mouth/lick-action type of kiss...something maybe only a mother could appreciate. Which I do.

VIDEO COMING SOON.....

Army crawler!

Nolan is officially a crawler! It's more of a army/traditional crawl-style, but it's still crawling! He will start out on his knees, pushes off, is then on his belly, then pulls with is arms.

Whatever it is, it's adorable and completely amazing to me :) So proud!

Rough night!

Last night we stayed at my mom's house, as our water heater broke. So we packed all our stuff and settled-in at Mamacita's.
I'm not sure if it's due to the change in environment, but Nolan woke up SEVERAL times last night. Francis & I are exhausted! Luckily, Francis was able to catch a few extra zzz's than I could.

Mini-me

I really had *no* idea when I was dressing Nolan this morning that Francis would be wearing the same outfit! Francis was in the bathroom getting ready when I dressed Nolan.
Then Francis comes out and.......HAHAHAHAHA! Francis and his mini-me!!

Perfect Pincer grasp

Nolan has been able to pick up food and put it in his mouth for quite a while now (at the least the past month??) But it has been grabbing the food with a full fist, and hoping some of it will make it into his mouth.

However, he now has the precision of a surgeon. He very delicately picks up each piece with a perfect little pincer grasp (thumb and pointer finger), and places it right into to his mouth.

Nolan-bear is such a stud!

Nolan's big-boy car seat!

We finally got Nolan the next-level car seat. He looks so small in it! I can't believe he's not in the "infant" car seat anymore :(

Cuteness

Just posted this pic for plain ol' cuteness sake. Love that face!

Pushing/crawling backwards

When it comes to rollers, I don't think there's any better than Nolan. That kid can roll across an entire room in 3 seconds flat.
However, today, he starting getting on his hands and knees, then on his hands and toes!! After that, he proceeded to push himself backwards!

That kid will be crawling in no time!

I'm hiding!

I'm hiding, Ma! I bet you can't find me!
