Duke is 41 Weeks Old!!

Duke is talking more and more these days - it is true how they repeat anything you say!  Yes it is in his own language but you almost hear it come out.  He is becoming a fast crawler, and has started putting his head down to really get going when he is on a mission to get somewhere.  Which scares mom and dad for all the busyness that is on the way for when he starts walking.  Duke has started standing on his own, he loves to put a toy in each hand, stand up and shake them for about 10-30 sec then he is back on his butt :)  Duke is still eating purred food - mom can not tell if he has a favorite because he will eat pretty much anything you put in front of him but he does love snack time in the living room in his bumbo chair.  Here is some photos from our fun week!

Snuggling up with dad.

MMMM Beer!  Duke loves cans and will go right for them when the fridge opens.

Guess where Duke climbed when mom was cleaning the fridge!

I love to climb under and over anything - even if I get stuck!

Duke's first art project, of course with the help of mom.  Gobble Gobble.

He is getting too big!

Curious about his new friend Curious George.  One of mom's toys when she grew up and her favorite.
