Pittsburgh and Thanksgiving

We traveled to Pittsburgh on the weekend of November 14th, to see some good friends. We stayed with the Franey's and got to see Megan's friends from PA school and their new babies. It was really nice finally getting Griffin to meet some babies closer to his age instead of mostly toddlers. On Sunday, we went over to the Prosser's to let Griffin play with Madalyn whom we also saw on our trip to Kill Devil Hill's over July 4th. Madalyn has grown up quite a bit and while we were there Griffin stared at her ability to stand up on her own. She was also more mobile than Griffin but would crawl over to him and hand him toys.

Griffin currently is able to sit up on his own, roll on the floor and spin around on his belly. He can get up on all fours and rock back and forth, but he still has yet to put one arm in front of the other and start crawling despite repeated attempts from his Mommy and Gammy to teach him. I say "be careful what you wish for".

Just yesterday he rolled over to his dresser and managed to unscrew a knob on the lowest drawer.

Also, Griffin is making "Da da da" noises quite frequently much to "dada's" delight.

Lastly, on Thanksgiving, Griffin ate sweet potatoes for the first time. This was the first time he had real food besides breast milk and rice. I think he liked it.
