A Look Back at July...

July was such a fun month in the Riddle household!  Davis keeps getting more & more fun and we are enjoying him so much at this age!  Here are some of the highlights from our month...
I like to make silly faces with my daddy!
I went to the pool with friends!
And I got to go to lunch at Stamey's with my Great Grandmother!
I figured out how to steer my walker & I run all over the house now!!  I'm unstoppable.
I celebrated the 4th of July at the lake
And had to say goodbye to Uncle Aaron & Aunt Stacy because they left for the Himalayas!  :(
Some of my friends came over to play in my pool with me.
The beginning of the month was really rainy so I played inside.
I got really good at the drums!  
I learned to use the signs "more"...
...and "finished"!
My mom and dad went to Charlotte to celebrate their 5th anniversary...
and Nana came to stay with me!  I did a great job & my parents had a great time!
Aunt Lori and Uncle Nate were in town from Germany for the summer!!
At Aunt Lori's birthday, Mimi shared some of her cake with me. And I tried to lick her plate clean! Mmm.
I am a great eater still & can feed myself most of my finger foods!
I started feeding myself with a spoon a little bit.
Just with foods like oatmeal or yogurt that stick to the spoon a little easier.
I can give you a High 5!
I love swimming!
I went to the beach with lots of my family!
I loved hanging out with Aunt Eliza, Aunt Caroline & Uncle Isaac while we were there.  :)
I was a good sleeper this month... even at the beach!
I usually sleep either 30 minutes or 1.5 hours in the morning and then 1.5 hours in the afternoon.
I started going to bed closer to 7:45 or 8 instead of 7 so I would sleep a little later in the morning.
I went to the Fort Fisher Aquarium with my mommy!
I'm going through a little bit of separation anxiety right now.
Sometimes I'd rather stay with either my mommy or daddy.
I made up a game in my room where I stand up next to my ottoman bean bag...
...and flop onto it, over & over!  It's the best game & makes me laugh so hard!
I have two teeth now so I started brushing my teeth!  I don't really love it yet!
If you ask me where my hair is, I know how to grab it! 
I give the best kisses around! 
I love to talk!  It's starting to sound like real Davis-language conversations! 
My daddy put my big boy car seats in the cars!
I learned how to stand up like a big boy!
And I started taking steps on July 6!!  Pretty soon I'll be walking everywhere!
How is this summer almost over?!

These Boots Were Made for WALKING...

Davis took his first steps on July 6th...!  He's not actually walking independently yet but he's taking a lot more steps and is getting much more comfortable getting around.  And he LOVES it.  
Mission accomplished! 
It won't be long...!

Rolling to his Tummy

Last Saturday (2.16.13), Davis finally decided that he wanted to roll from his back to his tummy.  We've been working on it but because he isn't a fan of tummy time, we weren't sure he was ever going to voluntarily flip onto his tummy. But...now he's a pro at it.  :)
Next up: crawling. Ahh, I'm enjoying this stage where I always know where he is!
