Mr. Crawler

                                   10 months.. AH... He is almost 1.  Time is going way to fast.

Somehow I think this is backwards!!

2 weeks before this big boy turned 10 months he decided he would crawl. At first he had to be motivated by some object. He decided he would crawl on the day Jon and I painted the kitchen. We turned around and he was chewing on a paint brush. Then he decided he would only crawl just for something very special like food. Finally at 10 months he decide there may be something to this crawling stuff. One day we found our little man almost all the way in the bathroom, and the another day he got stuck under our Little Tykes table. He was not a happy camper about that. He has started to pull up on his knees (just his knees). We had our first accident with the fire place. I am not sure if he can't figure out how to get down off his knees or if he had road rage and ran smack into the fire place with his forehead. This made him terribly upset.

He still is not sleeping through the night. All though this week he has only been getting up once. Woo Hoo for Mom and Dad who are so tired. He is starting to sleep on his side a little bit where before he only slept on his back. I am hoping this will help him sleep though the night. He loves table food, probably more than baby food. Its actually hard to get him to eat his baby food. I have to sneak it in his mouth in between his soft table food. He still only has one tooth, but I am pretty sure another one is on its way. We have a very runny nose and are on our 3rd ear infection.

This is how he laughs and throws a fit. He has a little temper that can be turned on very quickly, but usually within seconds he is back to his smiley little self. 

He loves to play with the big boys during daycare hours. He prefers to be around them, but they just run around to much. He is wearing mostly 12 month clothes already and has been for a month or so. Some of 12 months are going to be too short soon. 

And our newly painted Playroom!!

Christmas 2012

Christmas 2012. Noah 9 months and Isaiah 3.

 Isaiah loved helping put the sprinkles on the cookies.

 Our annual baking cookies had to be hosted by Dad, because mom got sick a couple days before Christmas. They did a great job and I got to feeling better. I did get to decorate them with the family.

 We had to hurry through our Christmas story and Nativity set this year because little man was getting fussy.

This $3 cap gun was Isaiah favorite present. 

Daddy's big surprise present. A membership to Bartlesville Gun Club!!
