Fun in Maryland

Last week David and I spent a few days visiting our good friends, the Ontiveros, in Maryland. It was a great time to just relax, hang out, and catch up. Their new home is so roomy and in such a nice neighborhood, walking distance to a lake. Jen and I went for a few walks, minus the kids, and on the 4th we all went for a stroll. After the kids were in bed they had a pretty spectacular fireworks show over the lake, which we could actually enjoy from their parking lot. It was nice to see the kids play together. Anneliese is walking around everywhere and David was trying to crawl to keep up. He was especially excited anytime Danny would walk into the room, he really enjoys watching older kids. Danny was very helpful with David, when I asked Danny to keep an eye on him for me, he took it literally. I sneaked a peek to see what he was doing, he wasn't even watching TV, he was watching David and giving him toys and hugging him, it was so adorable, he took it literally.

On the move!

In the past couple weeks David has just taken off. He is finally crawling. I was in the kitchen and he just showed up with a huge smile. He still does his belly crawl when he is a bit tired and he still has some coordination issues, but he sure loves to get around. He just crawled to me and pulled up on the chair to say hi. David is also more vocal, he loves to squeal, especially when Daddy comes home. His latest saying is "awa, awa", either for agua or for what :) Here are a couple of little videos of him on the go.
