It's been a very long time!

So, sorry to everyone who enjoys reading this blog. It has been a very long time since I have posted anything. Of course, it has also been a very long time since anybody from my family has posted anything.

For those that didn't know, about 1 1/2 months ago, we were concerned that Damian wasn't crawling or walking yet and our doctor suggested that we go see a physical therapist. Well, we went and found out that Damian had what is called tactile sensitivity. He is very sensitive to touch, and he basically didn't like the way that things felt on his legs and feet so he would avoid putting them down, wouldn't stand up, and wouldn't attempt to crawl. The physical therapist recognized it almost immediately when working with Damian, and gave us some exercises to do to help him get over or used to his tactile sensitivity. He has since then learned to crawl, and now he is going all over the place, just as quick as he can get there. It is actually quite fun to watch. He has also in this past week started standing up against furniture, in his crib, and against everything else he can. He also has this week learned how to crawl up stairs, and we have also had our first falling off of the stairs. Oh boy, does he have a good bruise on his forehead now!

Here is a picture of Damian, the day that he fell off the first stair. He had a huge goose egg and now its turned into a wonderful bruise.

We've decided that Damian is going to be Yoda for halloween. This is a preview of him in his costume. 

Just another cute picture of Damian sitting with daddy on the couch.

Here is a picture of Damian with daddy on the front step. We love the cheezer smile he has in this picture.

Yet another one of Damian and daddy on the couch. I love his shy smile in this picture.
