Jr. started standing up on his own a few weeks ago and he even inches side to side all around his playpen or his crib now.  But the funny thing is he still hadn't figured out how to sit back down once he stood up.

Goodness forbid I'd be in the shower or something, this child would get stuck standing holding on for dear life!  He would just stand there and cry and screeeeam his little head off until I'd rescue him. My little man was afraid to let go and let his little bottom drop. It was the funniest thing! Lol

Well, not anymore... Jr. finally figured it out and can sit down now! He is 10 months old today, my pumpkincito!

Junior crawled for the first time today... and I actually witnessed it!! Well, I think this was his first time... lol He crawled a very short distance but my baby did it! It's so exciting to watch him reach his milestones and also a bit difficult to keep my composure. I try my hardest not to scream or laugh because I don't want to startle and interrupt the moment. lol
Now I have to prepare for the workouts I have ahead of me... oh boy!

The Juniorman gave his mommy a bit of a surprise today, and not to mention a little scare.  I like to take naps with him on my bed sometimes… so I spread his little blanket out and laid him in the center, as usual.  He was already sleeping, or at least I thought he was. I ran to the kitchen to get something to drink before the nap.  It took me all of 2 minutes I think… when I got back to the room he was on his back!!  He rolled his little butt over!!  I was so excited to see that he finally did it again… after all he IS 4 months old and this is when he’s supposed to be doing that.  How exciting! But mommy knows not to leave him alone on the bed like that again!!

I think you all know by now, I’m something like the paparazzi … always got the camera lying around ready to snap away.  Once again, I didn’t catch him in the act, but I walked in the room and this is what I found…

Ok so I finally decided that it was time for an upgrade… Yes! Jr. is now officially sleeping in his crib and no longer in the bassinet.  The little one is not so little anymore and needed more space for his chunky butt.  It’s so silly but I actually missed him next to me the first night… and he’s only about 3 feet away now! Lol  I can’t help to look at his bassinet and get a little sad… my little man is no longer that little itty bitty baby! I love how he stretches his arms out, that's how I knew he needed the crib... poor thing was restricted in the bassinet…“Yay! Look at all the room I got now!”

Corey Jr. recently made a huge discovery… he has hands!!  He loves to explore them by staring at them and sucking on them.  He’ll make little fists and then twist and turn them in front of him and stare with such amazement.  They’re like his new toys!

I have to say this bouncer is wonderful! It keeps him entertained for an extended period of time.  Works SO much better than the swing.  He loves the bright colors and he actually focuses on the toys attached.  Well, I was so amazed to see him smiling and carrying on all by himself...

I'm not exactly sure when he first did it... I just know it was in his first month (which is very early).  There's been several times when I've laid him down on his tummy and when I return he's on his back! So I finally caught him in the act a couple days ago.  Mommy's so proud... lol! 

Note: The picture isn't of him rolling over... just thought I'd share another picture of my precious little one!
