How to go from laying on your back to sitting in 20 secons

Lesson given by Nandu, 9 months, 2 days and yellow pajamas!

9 months and the usual stats

So here it goes:
76 cm
9.47 kg
47 cm of head contour

And even if now solids played a big part of that, he still gets his fair share of mom's milk :)

First is a picture of a few days ago

And here is a picture of tonight, after we forgot to take a picture all day long. This is just at bedtime, and Nandu was basically already asleep. But that's the only 9 months picture we've got.

A few memories from November

We also went to Brussels and took the plane for the first time, but I didn't have my camera... sorry.

8 months, 3 teeth and a great kid!

Just a normal day for his 8 months birthday and two pictures.

Not sure what that face means

That means: bring me to the potty now!

Fête des Pedroli

(Post in French, because it matters mainly to my French speaking friends :) )

Superbe fête ce week-end pour les 60 ans des Pedroli! Nandu a "dansé", et fait des sourirs à tout le monde pendant 6 heures d'affilée! J'étais très très fière. Voilà juste un petit exemple de sa concentration pendant un des intermèdes musicaux.

Par principe, je ne poste pas trop de photos de gens sur mon blog si je n'ai pas leur autorisation, donc se sera la seule photo de cette fête magnifique. Mais on s'en souviendra!

Hard to be a physicist's son...

Here is what happens on Sunday when I have to give a talk at a conference on Monday...

The trick starts by a good session of feeding, then I just have to wait for the monster to collapse in a milk coma, and then work can happen!

And even when he wakes up, I actually have a shot at working a bit more.

7 months

and a new hat!!

I have to enjoy these moments because soon, he won't agree to wear the silly hats I knit.

Stawberry hat

I also have to enjoy the naps... this is so nice on a Saturday afternoon!

Nap time

Nandu is now also able to "walk" when we hold his hands. It's funny he has been able to stand for a long time now, probably about 1-2 months, but he finally figured out that if he moves his feet he can actually go forward.
