You've gotten to be a very quick belly scooter.  Your big accomplishment this month is that you've started pulling yourself up on things, as seen below:

You really started to babble a lot this month, particularly just before and while you are eating.  You say "babababababababababa" or "myum myum myum"

1st Cracker!

Cute!

There is no other reason for this post other than to display the cuteness that is Oliver.

First Haircut

Oliver got his first haircut this week. In case you don't remember what his hair looked like before, here's a reminder:

As you can see, Oliver was ecstatic about his new "do"

Accomplishments:

You really move across the floor now in your army crawl technique. You started pushing up on your knees, which has caused you to faceplant a few times, but you realize it gets you places faster so you persist!

More suspected teething activity yet no actual teeth yet. Quit teasing!

You've tried animal cracker, pretzel, apple, lemons (love those), pizza crust

Your baby babble has gotten more varied. You've really discovered your voice! You make noises by moving your tongue around and you like it when Daddy vibrates your throat to make funny noises.
