We have a crawler!

Henley has officially started crawling and this guy can really move. He started last Thursday afternoon, and by Thursday night he could crawl from one end of our apartment to the other. He is also pulling himself up onto everything! He might be a walker pretty soon. I've already caught him standing without holding on to anything for a few seconds. I have to say that learning to crawl has made this baby so happy. He just spends his days moving all around, babbling, and playing by himself. His naps are a bit tricky at the moment though, because he does not want to take a break.

This past week it has been nice to just hang out around the house and around town without doing anything too crazy. We spent Alex's birthday at a local craft fair. The fair itself was amazing with numerous vendors displaying many creative pieces. I would have spent so much money if I didn't have both Henley and Tegan to corral. The only bummer was that it was insanely hot. I wasn't too worried since I heard they had a splash pad near by, but apparently they just made a "No Dogs" rule so Tegan was out of luck. :( Henley loved the splash pad though. That night we enjoyed homemade pizza and nice stout beer to round out the day. Sunday, Hal and MM took us to Benihana's and we had a blast. Henley loved watching the chef and the food was pretty good.

Tegan was a hot dog! 

Grand Park 

It has been hot here in the valley this week, so Henley and I have been spending a lot of time indoors. On Tuesdays we usually head down to the Sherman Oaks library for story time. Somebody couldn't stay still and listen to the stories, but we still had fun. We also visited a local free indoor playground for kids of all ages, and they have a separate room for infants. Henley had the best time there! It's funny how bored and fussy he gets at home sometimes, but can just sit and watch other kids play forever.

** I wrote this blog a week ago, but I just got around posting it since nap times have been a little crazy this week. I think because of the crawling Henley really needs to be on me to stay asleep. I just started watching True Blood from the beginning, so I don't mind too much. haha I'll fill you guys in on this past weekend on my next post.
