On the same day that our little man started crawling, he started pulling himself up into a standing position. Our little man has always loved being upright and standing and now that he’s mobile, he’s decided that he’s going to do it himself.

Once he started, there was no stopping him. He now crawls to his chair when he’s hungry and wants his food instead of fussing.  He was also walking along furniture within a week.

A week before our little man turned 7 months old, he officially started to crawl. In the week building up to the main event, he was getting closer and closer, taking one step at a time. On this day, he took 4-5 steps at a time and Daddy and I finally called it crawling. It was so exciting and so awesome that Daddy was home to see it. We were so excited…giving each other high fives.

He has his own technique for crawling where he uses one knee and one foot and uses his leg and foot as the main source of propulsion hehe.

These are pictures of him crawling a couple of days later. We only got videos of him doing it on the day 🙂

 

How do you reward your uncle for coming over and playing with you? By stealing his wallet when he’s sleeping of course. mwahahaha

We had a little xmas party for our bubs at Playgroup. We tried to get a group photo but it didn’t quite work out hehe It was lots of fun and we did a Secret Santa. Alfie got a mesh feeder.

So I went to go brush my teeth and came back to this trail of destruction. This little boy is on the move and is leaving a mess in his wake 🙂

 

Somehow I managed to finish my puzzle from my December box in 3 days!

Now that our little man is more mobile, I need to actually clean the floors haha. So here we are vacuuming with a back carry in our ergo. This was the first back carry I got him in myself. I was pretty chuffed.

And knackered after wards. Needless to say, Alfie still had energy lol

 

Our little man is loving the Christmas tree. He keeps getting under it and sucking/ripping the presents haha. It was so cute when he sat up into it because all the bristles were prickling him in the face and he didn’t know what to do.

This is our little man at Mothers group. He kept stealing the toy off poor Ellexis and wouldn’t give it back.

He did the same thing the next week at Timester Club.
