We are now quickly finishing our baby proofing upstairs where the boys usually hang out since Nathan has gone from crawling a tiny bit and falling to crawling full speed ahead with a HUGE grin on his face. He also has figured out he can stand up if he pulls himself up on the couch, gates, toys, trash cans etc. He is still needs to learn trash cans and laundry hampers will fall down and take him with it. He has gotten a little frustrated with this fact of life. It is so much fun to hide in another room and try to get him to come find me. Based on his periodic frustrated scream...he doesn't see the humor in it but still plays along to keep mom entertained.
Christopher continues to army crawl all over the place but is now attempting to crawl as well. I guess he is getting tired of falling behind his brother when they are racing for the same toy. With that said, I do have to say his speed with the army crawl is pretty impressive. Ralph is now very nervous..Molly continues to be clueless. She is blind so she is always suprised when one of the boys catches up with her and pulls her tail, ears, wiskers etc. The boys have not figured out what it means when I tell them to be gentle. They are definitely ALL BOY!!! To further prove this...all we have to do is leave the remote somewhere where they can see it. Two seconds later the remote is covered in slobber...I guess control over the remote is a guy thing.
New info on our ongoing count for teeth: Nathan: 2 Christopher: 2 and a TON OF SLOBBER!! We continue to battle a little rash under their chins since despite multiple bibs each day, A&D ointment, periodic hydrocortisone cream the rash continues to remain. I am thinking about inventing some sort of drying agent that can be attached to the top of the bib...that might finally help me make my first million.
Nathan continues to babble most of his waking hours. It is SOO cute! Christopher said Mamma the other day and has started babbling a little also. It is so fun to watch them interact. They laugh at each other and almost have a language only they understand. They give each other slobbery kisses and also find time to slam each other down on the floor...I am sure they will be wrestling within the next few months.
We've been a little bad about posting pictures lately, so now we will try to make up for lost time.
Here are some pictures of the boys working on their sippy cups. This was right after one of their meals when we stripped them down to keep their clothes clean.
Nathan wonders if ham hocks taste like his feet.
Here are some pictures of playtime time for Nathan and Christoper.
Nathan is saying, "Hey mom, don't forget to get me in the picture!"
Nathan giving one of his goofy grins.
Christopher looks like he is on the prowl!
I swear Nathan is intentionally making faces at the camera!
Christopher in his walker. He might only be army crawling, but equipped with a walker, he can make it all over the house.
One day Winn Dixie (it is a grocery store for those not in Florida) sent us a hat. Christopher quickly claimed it for his own.
Christopher lounging around.
We recently purchased a new camera called a Flip Mino. We've taken 60 minutes of video on it already, but now we need to download it. We'll work on getting some video on this site this weekend. That's what we refer to as a teaser.
All the best.
Robin, Will, Nathan & Christoper
