Fitz is feeding himself now and it shows. His newest love is mashed potato.
Month: October 2014
1 Year, 8 Weeks: October weekend
1 Year 7 Weeks: Thanksgiving in Ottawa
Fitz spent Thanksgiving in Ottawa where he showed off his hair and plentiful teeth.
1 Year, 6 Weeks: Playground fun
Fitz is now able to climb stairs at the playground and is very happy to ride the slide. And he developed a runny nose.
1 Year, 5 Weeks: Also known as 13 months
1 Year, 4 Weeks: Down by the lake
One of the nicest benefits of living where we do is our access to the waterfront. The pedestrian bridge is 3 minutes away and the water’s edge is less than 5. Since summer has extended into autumn — and Carly is on the verge of going back to work — we thought we’d settle in to one of Carly’s secret spots with a semi-private view of Lake Ontario.
ABOVE & BELOW: Fitz is not always super charming for the camera — he has both a dour and animalistic side to him.
ABOVE & BELOW: Fitz is very stable standing upright and can often stand for up to 10 seconds on his own (see below).
ABOVE: The tall white building in the background is where Matt lived for 4 years before moving in with Carly.
BELOW: A group of Japanese tourists stumbled upon our sitting spot. A few of them were completely smitten by Fitz and took a series of photos. We can now honestly say that he has fans in Japan.
BELOW: After the Japanese crashed our party, we headed to the very busy kid’s playground in Sir Casimir Gzowski Park. It was a little hectic for Fitz but he really enjoyed the swings.
1 Year, 3 Weeks: The playground of teething
As Fitzy gets more mobile his playtime options are expanding. Playgrounds are not just about swings anymore — he’s crawling through tunnels, riding the slide, and climbing stairs.
Fitz is in the midst of a full blown teething extravaganza. His first 8 teeth appeared relatively close together back in the spring and it looks like he has 8 more coming in at different stages.
