I thought it was about time I wrote what Preston can do these days, since you are only getting to see cute pictures.
Preston is really growing up fast lately. It hasn't taken him long to figure out that crawling is fun to a point, but it is more fun if you can climb on things! So he spends his time crawling everywhere and pulling himself up on anything at Preston height (which is getting higher and higher by the day). He stands up against the couch, coffee table, doors, and can now even reach up to higher things like whatever might be on the tray of his highchair, while standing on the ground. On Friday he figured out that he can walk around easily while holding onto other objects for stability! His balance is really good and it wont be long before he can stand on his own. He practices this - he lets go of things and can stand for about a second before plonking on the ground.
Yesterday we took Preston for his first proper outing to a park and we pushed him on a swing and he crawled in the grass which was the most fun activity for him I think. Then Dan and I each took a hand and Preston WALKED for about 5 metres!!! We are so proud of him!
He is turning into a big chatterbox and is starting to string more sounds together. In the last few days he has changed from saying Dada, Mama and Baba to saying big long sentences mainly with Dabu dabu dabu dabu, which sounds very cute. I recorded one of his big story-telling sessions and will add it to the blog for you to hear!
We got our photos back from the shoot last week - they are ok but not amazing so we probably wont buy any. In the meantime, we had a really great photo session on Saturday with a photographer who is entering Preston in a competition, and i can't wait to see the photos - they will be soooo cute!
Dan had his first father's day over the weekend, and Preston bought him socks and ties :)
