Random Zach Pics

Zach is looking more and more like a little boy. I blame it on the increasing amount of hair...and the walking.


I love how grouchy Zach looks in this picture. Don't worry, we ended up putting the little chicken thing away since it looked like it could be a choking hazard.


Here's Zach in his happy little toy corner. It's a combination of his toys, toys I grew up playing with, and even a few my dad played with (the trashed box full of wooden blocks in the corner). What a lucky kid.


Zach thinks my brother Garrett is so cool. He gets really excited when he sees him and sometimes follows him around. Garrett had a friend over the other day and I found Zach just standing at the office doors just watching them. He stood there for at least 10 minutes.


Zach barely ever crawls anymore. With walking all the time Zach has his hands free to get into more trouble. He loves grabbing things from one room and carrying them to other rooms. We find the weirdest things in the kitchen and living room. Here's Zach with the kitchen towel he stole.


Side notes for journaling purposes:

Zach managed to sneak past the barrier and up the stairs without any of us realizing. Luckily we found him before he caused too much damage to the rooms upstairs or fell down the stairs. We're still working on teaching him how to safely climb down.

Zach has gotten so much better at letting us know what he wants. One example is that when he wants to get down, he'll drop whatever he's holding and stare at it. He's thrown stuff over the gate and down the stairs, put stuff on my lap, and thrown stuff through my legs. It depends on where he wants to go.
