Peg Leg


That's our new nickname for Eamon. He is fully crawling now and is all over the house. He does this crawl where he keeps his right leg straight out so he's only crawling on one knee - hence, peg leg. He is pulling up on everything and especially loves the train table. He can stand there for a long time and bang toys that make lots of noise. His favorite place to hangout is on the step between the 2 living rooms. All it took him was 2 days of practicing and now he can navigate up the step to explore greener pastures.. like under the table. You can't keep this kid down! Once he gets moving there is no stopping him. So, okay, he's crawling for about 2 weeks now, pulling up on everything, holding on with one hand, starting to creep around the furniture. Eamon thinks that means that, duh, I can stand on my own.. I don't need your stinking hand, mom! Not quite yet. He actually can balance for a second or two which is surprising. If we go by Jack's timeline (which we're totally not) Eamon could be walking in 2 months!! I'm not ready for 2 walking children!!! I am frightened.

Sadly, Eamon has been Super Mr. Cranky Pants these past couple of days. I think he's teething hardcore, but there is no tooth just yet. Just big bubbles in his mouth where teeth should be. And I found out that ice pops don't help teething babies. It just makes them cry worse.





Forgot to post this... Mother's Day with my messy boys

Below is a video of Eamon on the step
