We often find Cooper studying and then tearing part anything he can get his hands on. It's been just a few times he sat on this new playmat before he got himself off of it and started ripping it apart.
He's not yet crawling but he is scooting... as you can see he scooted himself off this mat to tear it apart.
We also see a new tooth coming in on the top so look out...more biting to come.
We are looking forward to Memorial Day weekend and plan on packing and getting ready for our trip to San Diego the first week of June. I am not sure of all the things I will need on our plane ride across the country so you seasoned parents who fly with babies, if you have any advice, I'd love to hear it :)

one thing that comes to mind right away is the ear popping..bring plenty to drink; juices, water, formula and offer him a bottle at take off and landing, drinking will obviously help him pop those ears. bring plenty of toys/books. i would say to buy a couple of new ones and don't let him see them until the flight. bring a blanket for snuggles and blocking out the light so he can sleep, teething cookies, teething toys. i used to give the girls a small dose of dimetap to help their ears about 1/2 hour before take off, but check with MD before doing that of course. i've not done it with christopher as drinking has helped and we've not had an issue with it yet. if you have a portable DVD player, the flight might be a good time to try out some baby einstein DVD's. have a great trip! :-)
