Hungry Mobile Casanova

So yesterday (Tuesday) was a big day for Caleb, as he finally crawled for real! Since he turned 5 months old, we have watched him develop in his scooting and creeping and baby push-up capabilities, just waiting for his little mind to click and for crawling to occur. Well our wait is over (and so is our time frame for getting baby gates up...needless to say we went and bought one this afternoon!), he officially crawled using all four limbs in forward motion yesterday twice. The second time he did it, he went about 4 feet in one progression of it. It was SO exciting! So now he just needs to remember what he did! Ha ha! Additionally, before the crawling milestone occurred, Caleb and I had our first playdate yesterday too with other moms and babies from the North Shore Mom's group that I just joined. All the babies were super cute, so I posted some pictures of that too. Finally, there are a few shots and one video of Caleb's first experience with Cheerios. He started those about a week ago and I am finally posting that stuff as promised. Now he is a champ at eating them, it is so funny, he is like a little baby bird when a Cheerio comes near him. He opens his mouth super wide and sticks his neck out to receive those yummy little o's! More to come from this past weekend as well when Val's parents visited and from Caleb's baby dedication this past Sunday...those should be up sometime this week!

These pictures above were taken on Monday when he was still working on crawling. As soon as we catch the real thing on camera, we'll be sure to post it!

Here's Caleb at the baby playdate with Liam to his left, and Mia and Reese to his right.

All the babies just hanging out!

Here was Caleb patting Miabella on the back. They were so cute together!

And here was Caleb experiencing Cheerios for the first time last week. Now a week later, he still can't quite get them into his mouth yet, but he does pick them up and gets excited when he does so. And as I said, he loves when he is given them too. I'll have to post his baby bird look soon!
