Nine Months

In the midst of our holiday travel issues, I almost forgot that Arturo Tolenka is 9 months old today. Yippeee for our little Lenka! Some of his new favorite things include clapping, changing the channel on the tv using the remote control and standing without holding on to anything (the latter often followed by CRASH! and, sadly, boohoohoo).

Turo also remains a reasonably good sleeper, who continually gets points for cuteness while snoozing, even if not always for number of consecutive hours slept.


Incidentally, Arturo shares a birthdate of the 23rd with his grandpa, Fernando, whose REAL (annual) birthday is today, and who is a master of clapping, channel-changing, "no-hands" standing and sleeping through the night.
Happy Birthday, Dad/Grandpa!!!
