Trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica!

We had a wonderful trip to Montego Bay! Talon had SUCH a good time and we enjoyed it very much!
Talon was amazing on the plane ride and slept for most of it both ways. We gave him a bottle for departure and arrival so that his ears popping wouldn't bother him and he was excellent.
We stayed at a fantastic resort where the beach was mere feet from our hotel room! We had a nice patio to sit out on when Talon napped in his crib. We enjoyed all the great food and entertainment and Talon learned to dance there! He also learned to crawl on his hands and knees and enjoyed shouting in the hallway, "Ah!"
We took a trip into Ocho Rios and Talon was so well behaved on the bus! We visited Dolphin Cove and swam with stingrays, snorkeled, saw a shark show and petted dolphins! Talon bit the dolphin, Mitch, on the nose when he leaned in to kiss him!
Rather than post the 61 pictures I want to share, here's a link to my album on Facebook.

New Way of Crawling!

Talon has discovered an easier way to crawl, and I think it will only be a matter of days before he masters the crawl. He is no longer dragging his body along the floor, but doing a mini-push up and then reaching ahead of himself to move forward! Mike calls it an inchworm, I think that's an appropriate description!

Crawling!!!

So Talon started crawling yesterday! On April 17th we were at my mom and dad's and he started wriggling over to a toy on the floor next to him! My dad got it on video so I'm hoping to steal it for this blog.
When we got home he showed off his new talent for daddy too!

Talon showed us another new skill yesterday too! He was mimicking Mike when he had his hand on his head. It was the funniest thing! Mike would put his hand on his head and Talon would copy. Then he would put it down and he copied again! Too funny! Here's the video.
