Yes I'm gonna be a star

Drew had his first tooth come through the gum last week. If you look closely you can see it in the second picture. Drew and his lady friends meet up on occasion at Tuesdays on the Terrace at the MCA.

The world is at your command

How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?

Drew is getting close to crawling. He thrusts himself forward from a seated position, lifting his backside off the ground and either grabbing the object he is reaching for or ending up in a tummy time position. From there he can inch his way forward or spin himself in circles. This morning we had the talk about baby proofing. We are not too far away now.

Here come old flattop

In keeping with our summers outdoors activity theme, Drew went to his first Cubs game. It was a nice day, not too hot, and a low scoring game so not too much loud cheering. Drew likes clapping and music, both of which are plentiful at Wrigley Field. It was exciting to take him for the first of many many visits.

Somewhat related is Drew is getting close to clapping his hands, waving, and giving high fives. He is starting to show an understanding for moving his hands and arms in different positions. Going to Wrigley and his Wigglewormds class is helping him get closer.

Living is easy with eyes closed

Time is really flying. Summer is in full swing and Drew is doing something fun outside almost every day. Last week we went to the zoo and listened to jazz at the MCA. Street fares with kids areas happen every weekend and the pool is never far away.
