New TV...




Ady even likes to watch movies on the new TV!!


Will is watcing his new favorite movie, of course!!

Brad bought a new television for our living room so we could get the big one moved out. It was a huge hazard and we didn't want it falling over on one of the kids. Here are pictures of Will watching the new TV.....he is definitely going to follow his dad's obsession with electronics!!

Ady's new adventures...





Adalynn is getting very mobile. She is up on all fours now and can get across the room in a hurry doing her army crawl. She almost made it over the gate the other day from the living room in to the kitchen.


She is talking more and more everyday and is getting such a great personality. She is smiley most of the time and loves to watch her brother and her puppy. She also likes to be in the excersaucer and play. She likes biting on the elephants ears and sometimes bites so hard that she screams!


Here are some random pictures of her.


Lake Fun!




We went up a couple of weeks ago and helped Bill and Barb close the lake house for the winter. Will had fun playing in the leaves with Gabi. She was wheeling him around in a pile of leaves and he would take them out of the bucket and then put them back in! It kept him busy most of the day!


Ady stayed inside most of the day and played on the floor. Here is a picture of Ady with her Aunt Melissa!


Oh ouch!!




Will and I decided to go outside the other day. Ady was sleeping and Brad was working, so I decided to get Will out and get some fresh air. We were running up and down the sidewalk and then we got Will's car out. He was tired so I was pushing it back home and he was walking in front of me. He then decided that he was going to run up our driveway (a slight incline). He was going too fast and lost his balance and fell. It was a bad fall or hard fall, but the momentum forced him forward and he hit his mouth on the ground. He immediately started screaming and all I could see was blood coming out of his mouth. I ran him inside and set him on the counter and got a wash cloth out and ran cold water on it (it was covered in dirt). I let him suck on the wash cloth and tried to clean up the scrape. I had Brad come in and sit with Will while i went up and got the peroxide. I got a q-tip and was cleaning up the outside. He split his lip on the inside as well. I stuck the q-tip in his mouth and then he wanted to suck on it. I have such a weird kid!


It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. He got a pretty fat lip and the next morning it was pretty crusty. But all in all, he bounced back and even wanted to go back out side and play!


Fun with Food...



Will has been experimenting with his food lately. He was sticking peas to the side of his head the other night and then calling the balls and throwing them across the room.


He had tomato soup from a cup and straw and I think he had more on him then he ate. We also had grilled cheese with the soup and I cut them in to slices for him and showed him how to dunk them in the soup. He decided that he wanted to just soak all of them in the soup. He kept taking them out and putting them back in. It was a mushy mess!


I gave him a fudge bar after dinner the other night and put it on his plate and gave him a fork to eat it with. He still had some chicken left on his plate and he was dipping the chicken in the chocolate melted mess. He would eat it and say, "yummmmm, gooood!" It was so gross, but so funny!

My favorite place to play...



Will has one cupboard in our kitchen that is his. I sometimes put random toys or snacks in there for a surprise. He is in there playing at least everyday. He likes to close the door and knock and then wants you to say, "Where's Will?" He giggles and then flings the door open. It is really funny!

The time has come....

Today, I put Will down for a nap and came downstairs to make myself lunch. I kept hearing this weird noise from his monitor, so I went up stairs and opened his door. I didn't see him in his bed and couldn't see where he was. He was sitting behind his crib with the monitor base playing. He crawled out of his crib!!! We knew he was getting close to getting out, I just wasn't ready for when it happened.....

So now I think we are going to start transitioning him out of the crib to his "big boy" bed. We have a twin already set up and ready for him in his room, we just need to get a side rail. I can't believe that he is already growing out of his crib....he really isn't a baby anymore.....whimper, whimper....

My baby just wasn't a baby long enough!!!

Where is it?

Will's new favorite movie are the Toy Story movies....shocking, I know.....Dumbo and Cars are out right now!

Every time we watch the first movie there is a scene where Buzz and Woody look at the bottom of their shoes to see Andy's name written. And every time they do this, Will sits down and looks at the bottom of his foot (he is never wearing shoes) to see where his Andy is. It is so cute. He looks and then he does the hand signal for all gone. One of these days I am going to write Andy on the bottom of his foot when we are watching the movie so he can have an "owner" too!

Um, how did I get in here?





Today, Will wanted Ady to ride in his dump truck....so I put her in it for him. It was really funny...he picked up the scoop and was "scooping" her in and then we was pushing her around. At the end, he was trying to pull her out by her clothing. I am sure this is the first of many antics to come....
