A nosy & fast omnivore

The past weeks have been pretty busy and yet enjoyable. While Markus was increasingly active again travelling and visiting clients both in Vienna and abroad Jakob improved his pace of crawling, his ability to stand up and is even walking already when we give him a hand. That said, our living room looks more and more empty as we had to remove almost everything that is not fix attached to the floor or the wall. Our junior also loves to dig the potting soil in our flowerpots and also tends to taste it. Given that the temperatures have increased to an early summer level we did spend some tome on our roof terrace and Jakob always used that opportunity to indulge on his passion.

Jakob seems to love mother nature as he really enjoys himself outdoors – be it on the terrace, be it racing in the stroller through the woods or be it on the meadows of the Prater. He is not sitting quietly in one place but crawling around in order to explore the surrounding area, chasing ants, picking up leaves and plucking flowers and grass or playing with any shoes left unattended. As he is still right in the middle of the oral phase he is trying to taste everything and it is one of our main duties at the moment, to prevent him from feeding himself with soil, leather, rubber or sand instead of freshly cooked meat and vegetables, fruit and his beloved evening porridge.
