Videos of Ethan crawling and the boys playing

One of Ethan's first times really crawling across the room.


Another video of Ethan crawling. Notice how he moves his legs. It is kind of funny, but it is a start. He'll get the hang of it soon enough and be cruisin' just as fast as Alex.


Grant doesn't quite have the crawling skills, but he has this up-rotate-sit thing that s fairly entertaining to watch if he is really moving. Here is an example. Poor child can't get to the toy, but he isn't to concerned about it.


Last video is just of all the boys playing (and playing without screaming!!)

Videos from this week

When Ethan is pushed up to the table he somehow figures out how to get his feet up on the table. The other day he was doing this with his feet...


Alex is getting good at the crawling thing. He loves to crawl up to something or someone and pull up. He is also walking along furniture now. It won't be long for him to be walking.


One of Alex's favorite things to do is to crawl into the kitchen/dining room and toss a ring around. It sort of bounces and rolls around so he has to chase it. Watch him play...


I found Grant sitting on this water play mat yesterday. I suppose it works well to build up his core strength...


You get to witness some of Ethan's first "steps" crawling. We have been working hard on crawling, but Ethan and Grant just don't quite have it yet. He is Ethan's progress though. He is so close...


I caught Grant this morning pulled up on to his knees for the first time. I was so excited I had to get the camera. The are progressing fast.

1st haircut!!

The boys got their first haircuts today!! Thank you Robin for doing them for us!! :)

I have seen them all sit up on their own now

So, on September 8 I watched Grant sit up on his own. I thought he had before but I hadn't seen it to prove it. I did see it that day so now I know he can do it!

Then yesterday I saw Ethan sit up a couple of times (I thought, but I wasn't positive.) So I wasn't sure if he could do it or not. Last night, he woke up screaming in his crib. I went in to see what was going on and he was sitting up in his bed!! I know he can now!!

All my babies can sit up on their own now!!!

1 Year Pictures

Ethan in the background. Grant in the middle. Alex in the front. Check out the picture at the top of the blog for my FAVORITE picture of the boys.




I am envisioning them in about 15 years on a football team doing this pose... What do you think?




They all really don't like touching grass!! :)


Ewww... grass....
