February

Well, we are back at work, and already the semester is half over. Things have been going pretty well, thanks to the help of the grandparents. We are both enjoying our time at home with August, and even though we are totally insane when we each get 75 papers to grade, we wouldn't give up our time with August for anything. He's found his feet now and loves to play with them, and he's rolled over from his tummy to his back (once). Now that the weather is nice, we've been able to get outside for a few walks. August still cries whenever he sees his jacket coming, but usually if we sing, he's ok.


Although he still tips over if he forgets that he's sitting up, he's getting pretty good at doing it on his own.

This is from our first trip to the zoo. It was pretty cold that day, so we just stayed inside. The fish were Augie's favorite!


This is August in his Johnny Jump-Up--he's finally getting the hang of it and actually does some jumping. When we first got it, he just hung around in it, not really sure what to do.
