Playing with:

  • Angus loves the playground baby swings.

  • Angus is still fascinated by shoes. He loves to pick them up. And when we're not looking, he loves to get them in his mouth.

Skills

  • Babbling-- Before this month, Angus had babbled a little, but he started really babbling Thursday 7/17. Da da da da da
  • Standing without support (when he doesn't realize he's doing it)


Events

  • Angus had his first vacation. He went to Maryland with the Hay family. He took a plane for the first time. He swam in a pool for the first time. He met his cousin Sean for the first time.
  • Kelli and Eric visited for a long weekend, bringing baby Owen to meet Angus at only 2 months old.
  • The nanny share was at our house.
  • For the month, Angus had 2 upper teeth and 4 lower teeth.
  • The itching gets really bad with the eczema. Angus breaks the skin on his arms pretty badly a couple of different times this month.
