Augie meets snow - 10 months

Augie turned 10 months today. Daycare was closed for Veteran's Day, but Mama had school. So, I (Dada) got to hang out with Augie all day, just the two of us.

We got some 10 month pics. It was quite a rodeo. In keeping with the spirit of these monthly pictures we've been taking, the quilt Kari made is (technically) in all the pictures. But it's getting hard to catch the fleeting moment when he's actually on the quilt.
 
We've got a stander. Everywhere. All the time. And just as important, he knows how to dismount safely from standing position.

Wedged him between the couch and ottoman so he would stay still long enough for a picture.

Coincidentally, we got our first snow of the year last night. 1-2 inches. Technically Augie saw snow last winter, but he probably doesn't remember that.

 Dada, did you see this? Outside turned white.

I can goes to Outside?

Wait a second... the screen door doesn't latch.

Dada, I'm going outside!

Disclaimer: It was actually pretty warm outside in the sun. Dada was in a tshirt and shorts.

Crawling on hands and knees! This is actually a rarity. Augie is more of an army-crawler.

Wet. Bright. Texture similar to the oatmeal & pears I just ate.

Doesn't taste like oatmeal.

Cold foot!

Foot elevated. Further taste tests.

Off-quilt exploration. Minimize ground contact. Keep left foot elevated.

  1. Hahaha I love it! Lifting his feet out of the snow is so adorable! It immediately reminded me of x-mas 2010 when you took Nanaa out in the snow and she also did not want her feet wet! :)

    1. Oh my gosh, yes! We had forgotten about that! Now when we open the door she runs for it no matter what...something about having a 10 month old who doesn't know about "gentle touches" just yet makes her yearn for her days running free, snow or no snow.
