This is the way I like to eat....

Soccer game

We took Wesley last night to his first DC United soccer game.. He LOVED it! He really enjoyed watching all the people and was very excited about the soccer ball. Dc ended up losing but it was still a fun game to watch. A couple of times towards the end of the game when Wesley was really tired he got a little scared by the cheers of the crowd. He did like raising his hands and trying to cheer with the crowds though. He also had fun flirting with all the ladies around us!

Smile!

Wave!

Wesley has perfected his wave technique and its pretty cute. He does it when people wave at him and also when he thinks it would be socially correct to do so.. like when people are walking by and commenting on how cute he is he will sometimes throw up the hand in the wave which makes him seem all the more cute. Here are a few pictures of him waving at Aunt Ba while he was eating

4th of July

We went into DC on the 4th to catch the fireworks and even though it rained a little we had a great time! Uncle Jakey and Aunt Ba went with us and we had a picnic dinner. After that we found prime seats with no crowd to watch the fire works. Wesley was glued to them and even though they were very loud he didnt seem to mind at all!

My little monkey....

Wesley has gone from crawling to cruising in the last 3 weeks! The other night he decided that it was a great idea to stand up in his amby hammock that he sleeps in... so once that started it was no longer safe for him to be in it so we decided to switch him to a pack n play (we don't have a crib). We did his whole bed time routine and laid him down and he stood right back up reached for the top bar and climbed/pulled himself to the top to the point where he could have fallen out! We did not know what to do with him now that we had no place safe for him to sleep and even if we had gotten a crib its not any deeper then a pack n play. So we went and bought him a toddler bed that way if he did fall out it wouldn't be a big deal because its only a few inches off the ground. We put him in it last night for the first time and it was a struggle to get him to sleep.. but today he did much better at nap times and tonight when i laid him down he snuggled right in and fell fast asleep!!!

underwater

When we first started going to the pool we have been working with Wesley to learn to go underwater. We count to 3 and then would blow a little in his face so he would hold his breath and then dunk him under really quick. He thought it was lots of fun and would make the greatest faces. The other day we went to a water park and I was showing someone who was with us that he could go under and that he liked it. I started counting, 1... 2... 3 and he bent forward and put his own head under the water!!! He came up with a big smile!
