9 month Checkup

Christopher had a good check up this afternoon. He is 19 pounds and 11 ounces (40 %) and 29.5 inches (90%). No shots this time so it was a quick and easy visit. Next one is for one year!

Easter 2011

Happy Easter Papa!
Zoey and Audrey were ready to hunt eggs!

It was fun watching them run around!



Christopher enjoyed the swing while hunt went on.



They were pros!





Audrey showing off her take.

Three bunnies in a row.

The Easter baskets were a hit!

And Christopher looking cute as ever!

Life at 9 Months

Christopher can now pull up and even free stand for a second.
He's getting into EVERYTHING!

Audrey is mostly annoyed by his new mobility but will play with him on occasion.

They are pretty darn cute in my opinion!

Easter Bunny!

Audrey was so excited to see the Easter Bunny this year,
She clapped and said He likes me!

Christopher thought he was pretty cool too.




My Little Readers

Good choice of books Audrey!
Will you read it to me?



And they even share... sometimes.

Garden Time, Standing and Crawling

Steve planted our garden again this year and Audrey helped.


Christopher started crawling last week and can stand on his own for a minute or so. Pulling up can't be too far behind! My baby is growing up so fast!

8 Month Portrait


At 8 months, Christopher can clap, move back and forth from a crawling and sitting position, and is eating #3 baby foods. He is beginning to like baby meats but fruits are his favorites and likes veggies as well. So far he has not rejected anything. He even tried cottage cheese the other day. He's not crawling in the traditional way yet has no problem getting to where he wants to go. He's wearing 9 month clothes, takes a morning and afternoon nap and is finally starting to sleep throughout the night with one wake up around midnight that needs a little soothing to get back to sleep for the remainder of the night. He loves bath time with his sister and chasing cat tails. He's very smiley during the day until Mommy has to go to work.

The Big Plunge

Christopher was literally crawling out of the infant tub and I was forced to put both kiddos in the big tub at the same time for the first time. The results: both kids had a blast!
And no one tried to drown the other!
SO MUCH FUN!
And so many more new toys to play with!
Naked basket time!

And of course Audrey wanted a turn.

My little butterball.

8 months and Clapping and More Teeth!

It's been a rough week. Christopher cut 3 more teeth with a 4th on the way. Say is isn't so?!
He's pretty happy during the day but nights have been hard on all of us.
But who can resist this little stinker?

It's been a busy couple of weeks, cutting teeth and learning to CLAP!
