Sean's Moving & Grooving...

Sean is now taking steps from place to place in the house - and will walk behind his scooter in the driveway. He prefers to not have any help - and likes to get where he is going by himself...

Sean's Fort

Today, Daddy built Sean his first fort out of pillows and blankets. He had a ball crawling through it - and in typical Croghan fashion, tearing it down as well. Daddy rebuilt it each time and Sean had a blast!

Future Soccer Player?

This morning we took Sean to watch his cousin, Lillian, play soccer. He LOVED playing with the soccer ball and seemed to have fun watching the game. Maybe we have a future soccer star among us?

Sean is Changing!

Sean is growing up every day!

He has learned how to play "Peekaboo" - although we call it "Where's Sean?". He takes a blanket or towel and covers his face. When we ask "Where's Sean?" - he lowers it and laughs and laughs. Then he raises it again and the game begins all over again. I haven't been able to get a good picture yet, but I'll post when I do.

Sean does NOT want his mommy or daddy to spoon feed him anymore. He prefers finger foods and to do it himself! He also feeds himself his bottles at night. (6 more weeks until "real" milk!") He dips his head back and takes a BIG swig - like he's doing a shot...hmmmm....

And, Sean LOVES to wear Mommy & Daddy's sunglasses. This is new - we bought him his own pair 2 months ago - and he wouldn't wear them for 10 seconds. Now, he likes to "pose" with Mommy's sunglasses on.

Our baby boy is growing up....

Sean goes to the Fair...And Mommy & Daddy go away!

This past weekend, Sean spent the weekend with his Grandma & Grandpa (John's mom & stepdad). They took Sean to the Frederick Fair to see the animals. (Sorry no pictures).

Since Sean was occupied for the weekend - Mommy & Daddy spent the weekend in DC at the JW Marriott. We had a great time - although we missed our "Monkey"...Here are some pics from our trip...

Sean's Baptism

Sean was baptized yesterday at St. Joseph's in Emmitsburg, MD. The ceremony went well - and Sean "talked" through the entire event. He especially enjoyed having everyone back to our house afterwards, where he was able to play with his cousins and spend time with his aunts, uncles, grandparents and great grandparents. Here are some pics from the church - with his god-parents - Uncle Andy, Aunt Shannon, Uncle Brent & Aunt Jen. And, a picture with his "Aunt Karri".
