New pictures: Leo's 6th month

The new convenient way of carrying babies :)
It's been a long while since we posted any galleries, the reason for which is that (a) after the vacation when we were taking pictures all the time we're a bit "clicked out" (b) being back to our daily routines does not present itself with many photo opportunities (c) as Leo becomes more active it's actually more meaningful to record a video than to take a picture.

"I love my big-boy chair!"
The first week after we came back from Croatia and France was all about getting Leo's routine back, and there was one night when the little guy literally woke up every 3 hours and then, on top of that, would not sleep between 3am and 5am! Luckily that was only a couple of days, but it was hard especially that the temperatures were crazy (some days almost 40C) and we could not go out with Leo during the day or in the evening! Instead, we'd gone to shopping centers like Costco and IKEA, where we could stroll in air-conditioned comfort :) Leo has been great throughout, and has us hoping he'll stay positive like this in months to come!



"Hippo is so yummy..."
The second week after we came back Cheryl took a vacation so Tea or I stayed at home with Leo, which was actually a lot of fun and made us appreciate what a good boy he's become! Nowadays we can take him pretty much everywhere with us, even in the evenings if there is a place for him to fall asleep (usually the master bedroom), and among others we've been to Val+Diego's and Ruti+Luis's for dinner, rooftop BBQ, brunch with Jane and to Fredo's for asado. We even took him to an outdoor pool one of the days, where Leo took his first proper swim outside of his bath! For those rare occasions that we want to do something without Leo (usually go to the cinema) we've been lucky that our friends offered to babysit, plus last Saturday we asked Cheryl to babysit while we went to a musical (Guys and Dolls) at Wolftrap, DC's outdoor venue.
