Last weekend the family camped in Yosemite at Hodgdon Meadows Campground. We were originally intending to go climbing (taking turns with some friends watching Xander while we went up the rock) but two bum shoulders prevented that. Instead we hiked, carrying Xander in a baby backpack. On Friday, while hiking the Four Mile Trail, it started to snow a bit.
Weather was chilly - 55 to 65 during the day and down to 32 at night--but we had Xander in a snuggly white bunting borrowed from a friend. He looked like a little polar bear cub. He slept between us in the tent and was really cozy and warm all night.
What else is Xander doing? Here's a list:
- babbling and practicing "goo" "koo" thhppbbt" and "aaaah"
- reaching for Bootsie
- flirting with the girls at daycare
- transferring toys from one hand to the other
- experimenting with gravity by dropping things
- eagerly lunging for spoonfuls of oatmeal
- waking up multiple times in the night for snuggles
- laughing after being held upside down
- waiting to roll over until he's good and ready
