Finally double digit! 10 months

We have finished another month and are now already in double digit (months) figures. During the past weeks Jakob has made another leap in his development as he is now crawling very fast, standing up regularly, standing pretty securely and even walking already when he has something to hold on to. Given Jakob is already very mobile we have several security gates installed in order to protect him from injuries (the many stairs in our flat turn out to be not so ideal) and yet he is surprising us very often with the pace at which he reaches the risky parts of the flat like stars, drawers or open doors.

Climbing is fun. Without a shadow even more so!

As our sunshine has also become pretty confident and secure in climbing up the stairs (usually with one of us right behind him) he sometimes surprises us on the second or even third level of the staircase if we are not preventing him for a second from approaching the stairs. Even though Jakob is a very jolly fellow he has developed his own personality further and is now sometimes pretty angry when we disallow him to play with certain items like speakers or power outlets and is trying several times from different angles to approach them. As obviously we try to prevent that as well we every now and then hear an outburst of anger. We are entering the phase of education!

Jakob, Kerstin & Markus
