This has been a super exciting week. It started on Monday with papa's 1st snow day of the year. We got a solid 35 cm, which was followed by another 10 cm throughout the week. Which means that the pulk has been put into action and Johan has discovered a new place to have great naps, although the rides can be a bit bumpy.
We were a little worried on Tuesday night that Sinterklaas would not be able to make through all that snow, but we prepared our clogs anyways and sang all the Sinterklaas songs before we went to bed.
Sinterklaas didn't disappoint. Johan received his own phone and a book on how to make a snowman.The most exciting thing is that Johan has started to crawl. With numerous attempts before the weekend, including some lunges while hanging out with Grannie, it was this weekend that he figured it out. After about a month of scooting backwards, Johan started to move forward in a hopping motion. His face now lights up with excitement when he sees a toy across the room, because he knows he can get there. His movements right now are a calculated hop, which is extremely cute. Opa and oma will be here in a week or so and we think Johan will be motoring across the room at that point, because right now it is all he wants to do. A scary thought for papa en mama as we attempt to baby proof the house.
