Boys and Their Wrestling

I grew up with four younger brothers and remember them wrestling almost daily.  Usually, when my mom would tell them to knock if off, one of them would yell, "Dad started it!"

I see many more years of wrestling in my future. . .

Crawl Carter Crawl!

Caden did not crawl until he was almost nine-months-old.  Carter just turned six-months-old and something tells me we are going to be chasing him A LOT sooner.

I can get up on my hands and knees pretty easily now.
I am trying to "bear crawl."
I get a little angry when I can't figure out what to do next.

Our "Cart"!

SIX-MONTHS-OLD! 
nicknamed "Cart" by Caden
reaches for his people*gives hugs and slobbery kisses
pulls Caden's hair and laughs out loud!*pinches Caden and laughs out loud!
wants to play with whatever Caden is playing with
becomes frustrated because he can not keep up with Caden
tries to eat everything we are eating
eats rice cereal and veggies (not too happy about it--wants real food)
sits up for a few seconds*prefers to practice standing, jumping, and taking steps
"swims" and scoots across floor*wants to crawl
growing too quickly!

Swinging for the first time!

can not believe you have been in our family for six months
can not imagine life without you
so glad God gave us YOU!
