Halloween Fun and Recent News

We had a lot of fun on Halloween. Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday. Yes, even more then Christmas. Don't get me wrong, I love the Holiday season (who doesn't?) but there is just something about Halloween... We were the cast of the Wizard of Oz, can you tell? Pat is the Tin Man, I'm Dorothy, and B was the cutest Cowardly Lion ever!











So... I've been saying forever that I was going to get some video of B up here, but I don't think it's happening anytime soon. I decided to post a series of pictures instead. First a little background... So he has been doing this little creep which we've dubbed the "army crawl" since the five month mark. I thought for sure he'd be crawling by six months. Then the seventh month mark rolled around and still no real crawling going on. At about a week after he turned seven months we got on film an actual crawl. Just a few moves up on his hands and knees. So then we thought for sure by the weekend he was going to take off and just be crawling like a mad man. Well he still is getting up on his hands and knees for a little bit, but is mostly doing his belly crawl. So a few days ago we are all in the living room and B decides to do this little trick....
























Do you like our barricade? We had to get inventive... what is it with dog food? I swear it's like a magnet for babies. We need a gate so bad. Anyway... We could not believe that B pulled himself up a few days ago. He hasn't even really crawled yet! We can tell he is so ready to be on the move though, he get's so frustrated with his limited ability to get around. It's a little sad that he's getting so big so fast... I wish they could stay little for longer. Before I know it I'm going to have a toddler!! (sniff). Oh by the way... B is NOT a nickname for the little man. I just don't like using his name on here :)

Oh, also. B has two more teeth coming in. So the count is six.

Well, he's just gettin around! Can't believe how big he is! And for the dog food thing, you should just feed your dogs 2 cups 2 times a day and then there wouldn't always be dog food out for B to get into because they scarf it down so fast;) just thought I'd throw that in to see what you thought.
