July

Joey is now 8 months old and a little spitfire. He discovered the stairs this month and has gotten himself up about 3 steps. He moves around the house so fast and is hard to keep up with. He loves to eat or tear off any sort of baby proofing we have done around the house, and he has now discovered how to open the kitchen cabinets. Here are some pictures from July so far.


Early this month Joey and I had a playdate with Lukas and Becky at the Philly Zoo.

Joey eating green beans.  The only way I can get him to eat them is if they are cut up, he doesn't like them mushy.

Joey playing with daddy.

Found the tupperware!

And here is the newest addition to the Fleming Family, Pat.  We are due at the end of January!  

June 2012

June was a busy month for us and our big 7 month old!  Joey brings so much joy to us every day.  We just love watching our curious little one explore new things and show us new tricks like standing up.  We also started him in swim class this month which he just loves!

Waiting for daddy to come home.

He climbed in the laundry basket all by himself.  He thought he was so cool until he decided he wanted out.

Swim class!

Making smush faces in his pack-n-play.

Joey's way of keeping cool on these hot days!

Loves his jump-a-roo!  We can put him in there for over an hour and he is happy as a clam.

Exploring what's under his exersaucer.

Helping dad bake cupcakes.

First time on the big potty!  He was in the tub and started to poo so I grabbed him and put him on the potty so he could do his business there and not in his bath water.

Watching Jeopardy.

Climbing into our kitchen island.

He's so proud of himself now that he can get up on his own.

May II

Here are some additional pictures from May.  

This was from our playdate with Evan, who is 12 days younger than Joey.  I just loved these pictures.  The boys played so well with each other.  It was a lot of fun for us watching them interact with each other.

Joey is trying finger foods now.  We started off with a rice cracker.  He loves them!

I took Joey up to the Philly Zoo one morning.  We had a great time and got to see lots of animals up close.

Here are some random pictures I took of Joey throughout the month.  

Sitting up so well!!

 Loves to swing!!
