Leif - Little Explorer - 6 months old - July 1975

As soon as Leif managed to get around on his own, he became a little explorer. He was scooting around at six months, managing to get just about everywhere but up and down the stairs, and he would have tried that if he'd been allowed to, if it weren't so dangerous at that age.

He loved to be on the go, to, in any way, shape or form, as long is he was heading someplace with something new to look at, pick up, manipulate, or taste.

This photo was taken in our dining room in the old stone house in Manhattan, Kansas, when he was six months old, under the buffet, July 1975.
