After breakfast, Mathieu led Ander on a chase around the house. I followed with the camera, trying to record Ander's adorable cackle. The "boop" sounds are from Mathieu. ;)
Ander can almost walk without support, but he can climb all on his own. Not bad for 9 months! Here he is climbing the stairs in our house. You can hear the creaking sounds as I climb up behind him. You can also see the "safety hand" in the bottom of the frame.
Ander has gross and fine motor skills at 10 1/2 months. He walks from the kitchen into the dining room, pulls a toy out of a container and manipulates it.
Ander's latest fascination is with picking up and examining books. Here he picks up several books (including "The Hobbit!") and thumbs through the pages of one. You Andover folks will recognize the '94-'95 Facebook. ;)
