Holy cow! Seven months old?!?!?

You have to be kidding me, right?!?! Seems like just yesterday I was swimming all day and kicking all night. This has been a super busy month for me. Every time I complete one new trick they want another... A couple of days before my six month birthday I started army crawling. Then it was just one thing after another! Chase the froggy, sit up by myself, crawling, pulling myself to standing. Next they are tryin to make me talk... but I don't really wanna. I'm too busy using my mouth to explore all this cool stuff around me. You should see what my mom does when I start licking the wheels of my stroller! She starts making these "achhh achhh icky icky" sounds. It makes me laugh and laugh. So far those kitties are still pretty quick, but every once in a while I get a good fistful of fur. That's not so good in the mouth though... hard to get out... gotta remember that one.

As long as we're celebrating, I have to tell you about my new cousin Riley Lou. She's a pretty cute kid alright. It'll probably be quite a while before we get to meet each other, but we're so close in age that I bet someday we will be great friends. Here's a picture of her with my Auntie Tine:

And here she is with Christine and D'Wayne. They adopted Riley Lou because they love babies so much! There are all kinds of families, and our family grew by three people in ONE day.

Oh yeah, Mom told me to mention that she posted a bunch of pictures from this month on Kodak Gallery because people miss printing them out. If there are any from previous posts that you have seen and not gotten a chance to print out, just let her know. Click here to view the pictures!

Crawling!

Please enjoy this video of our little monster! We are very glad that the bathroom renovation is almost complete, and plan to spend the greater part of the weekend cleaning up the construction dust because this guy is ready to GOOOOO!!!

PS. Thanks to Uncle Andy for the tip on getting these videos loaded! We'll be editing some earlier posts soon to include video, but we'll point you to where to look. :)

Stand up and shout

Logan's been getting pretty mobile these days, either army crawling or rolling and sitting to get where he wants to go. He hasn't crawled yet, but has been getting up on his hands and knees and revving his engine, so to speak - rocking back and forth to eventually figure out how to coordinate the movement. What he has been able to do is pull himself to a kneeling position, especially with the help of the bumper in his crib. He's also been trying to pull himself up on our coffee table but couldn't quite figure out how to get his feet under him and would end up sliding underneath the thing. This morning though, he was making a bunch of noise in his bed as he was waking up, so I went in and talked with him a bit, looking at him through the slats in his crib as though he were a prisoner ;). He was laughing and having a good time though, trying to yank my beard through the boards. I noticed he was grabbing the slats pretty well and thought he might finally figure it out. I turned away for a second, and the next thing I knew he was peeking over the top rail! I called Heather quick, and she was like "Get the camera! Get the camera!" Here's the proof:





It's a good thing I lowered his crib a few weeks ago! I expect to see him looking over the top again when he wakes up from his nap. Next up should be crawling, which might be any day now too! We're very proud of our little guy - he's learning so quickly. Until next time, love to all.

Easter Fun!

I have had a few requests from people who want copies of pictures but can't lift them out of these Smilebox albums. I'll post the pictures to the Kodak site near his 7 month birthday so you can order them if you want to. :)

If there are any others you want, just ask and I can always email them too!
