Crawling and Climbing

First week of summer home with the kids has been a blast! Charlotte is a master crawler now and she's on the move. Who needs toys, when it's so much fun to play with the DVD player, lamp, and the toilet. Not only can she pull herself up on her knees, but she can pull on the way up to standing. I wish she was had more stability because many times when climbing she ends up bonking her head - poor baby girl. Connor is such a big helper with Charlotte and the housework. I don't force him to do chores - he begs to use the Swiffer! Connor is also doing swim lessons and loving it. Overall, it's been a great week with trips to the park, library, childrens musuem, and zoo. What a wonderful way to kick off summer break!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Growing Up Fast

Both Connor and Charlotte are growing up fast these days. Charlotte loves eating her baby food and making big messes. She's almost a crawler; she gets up on all fours and rocks back and forth. She even pushes her legs up like she's going to bear crawl, but she just can't quite get those knees a moving. Instead, she just scooches herself around like a little inch worm. Also, Charlotte now has two teeth! Tooth number one broke through last weekend, and tooth number two broke through yesterday. Connor keeps getting bigger everyday, too. I can't believe how tall he is. Soccer is done for the year; next up is swimming lessons. Connor loves playing with Charlotte and singing her songs, but now that she's somewhat on the move, he's not happy about her wanting to play with his toys. I'm so excited for summer to start and stay home with these incredible kiddos! Let the fun begin!
