Mr. Mobile

It's official - Jack is mobile. He can get where ever he wants to and that's usually to the most dangerous place he can find! (Yes, he opened the drawer by himself.) Who ever would have thought full-on babyproofing would have to be done so soon?? Jack's new found mobility hasn't come without its bumps and bruises though - he's definitely not a pro (yet). His main problem is that he thinks he can go through walls - especially at the corner. He'll bump into and just power on forward - then get really mad when it doesn't work out and after the third bump or so it really starts to hurt so then the crying begins... Poor guy, he'll figure it out soon enough! He's also discovered that hardwood is not only hard on the knees (he does an odd little three legged crawl on the hardwood) it's also quite hard on the face and that you shouldn't reach out for something in the crawling position with both hands... But so far (knock on wood) there have only been little bumps that have disappeared by the next morning so he seems to be fairing well.
It was a quiet weekend for the Boyd Household - we went to the Woodland Art Fair (Jack loved looking at these giant steel mobiles - which the lady kept telling us at the bargain price of $2500 one could be ours) and that was about the extent of our excitement. It was so muggy out and then so rainy it was a great weekend to just stick close to home!
