Crawling, teeth, haircut

[bethany49]

Well Cole got his 1st tooth on August 13th & the 2nd tooth on August 29th.  There are now teeth marks on the TV stand as well as the inside of his crib rail.  Occassionally, he'll chew on his wrist & leave teeth marks.  If you aren't careful, he has been known to bite your big toe while sitting on the couch when he is playing on the floor.

He mastered crawling on August 26th.  He is into everything now & all over the place.  So much for him staying in the living room.  I keep the bedroom & bathroom doors shuts so he stays out of those rooms.  I noticed yesterday that whenever he decides to go onto the linoleum, he'll put his hands on the floor & then when his knees get to the moulding that is on the edge of the carpet, he gets up on his feet to "walk" over it in a kind of bear walk.  It is soooo funny to watch him.

He is pulling up on furniture much more confidently now.  He has been figuring out how to get back down to the floor once he stands up.  Thankfully he isn't just falling over but has figured out how to sit back down.

Yesterday we decided to give Cole his 1st haircut.  Not that he has / had much hair to cut anyway, but it was getting long in parts & constantly sticking out so we decided to trim it up.  He was doing well with it at first until we had to start trimming the back then he got a lil nervous.  I have posted some pictures of it in the September album.
