Here is a rough, read very rough, summary of what has been going on with me:
Taran has been home for a while, though that doesn't mean that he's actually been at home. Right now, life has been like a typical stay-at-home mom/working dad life. Taran has spent some time training then gone in to work at the lab for a couple weeks and then spent more time in training. So, he is gone for the day and Noah and I are home to go about our business.
For the most part that means that I go to yoga in the mornings at the YMCA, with the exception of Wednesday mornings when I meet with my mommy group. We've had a few rough mornings as Noah has continued his tendency to awaken early and not want to go back down.
Developmentally, Noah is continuing on. he is an amazingly fast crawler and manages to get into things before I realize that he's done it. I've caught him putting about everything he can into his mouth such as shoes, books (which he can very effectively and quickly destroy/eat), and even leaves off of my plants. He pulls himself up onto the furniture and will walk along the length of the couch or grab his push toy and walk with that. He is fascinated with anything on a hinge from book pages to doors to the dryer. He has discovered the cabinets in the kitchen but has not spent much time exploring in there, thank goodness. He also has become quite a climber as seen here:
He also received his first haircut on May 11. We did it at home with the clippers and it went great. He tolerated it so well:
He's continuing to grow, though his fast growth is over and now he's letting the other babies catch up to him so he doesn't appear to be such a mammoth.
I'm attempting to keep my sanity as I chase him around and am barely able to keep up with any of my other interests because how how occupied I am with him. Such is the life of a mom.
I hope my next blog comes sooner from a month from now, but we'll see. 'Til then...
