Stop Leo, you're moving too fast!

My little energy- boy is out of control these days. Today he managed to pull himself up to a standing position on the side of Clara's bed! So, that means he's learned how to crawl and stand over the span of four days. All these new abilities mean Leo's brain is on overdrive. He can barely settle down to go to sleep despite being obviously exhausted. As soon as he finds himself on his back, he flips over and starts crawling anywhere. Its as if he can't turn the switch off. I've resorted to an old favorite method for getting him to sleep; strapping him into the stroller and rocking him back and forth in the middle of the living room. This was Clara's preferred method for dozing off when she was an infant, I'm still amazed we haven't created any grooves in the floor.

Yesterday we spent the day at the beach at Parc Jean Drapeau with our group from the Carrefour. Karen already blogged the experience so go check it out. I did steal this picture though...


Unfortunately, after we got back from the beach and after our much needed family nap Clara woke up with a fever. She's been feverish all day and feeling really lethargic so we're hanging out at home. Poor girl, it is hot outside and her body is acting like a furnace on full blast.
