What's new


Brandt started crawling on September 13th while we were staying with my parents at their time share. He started out crawling like a little sweet pea, but has found his speed in the last month. Sometimes he tries to crawl so fast that his legs are going faster than his arms and he falls on his face. Whenever he gets to a hard surface, he pulls one leg up and scoots himself so he looks like he is riding a scooter. Last week, he started pulling himself up on everything and pulls everything down that he can reach. He especially loves remotes, or merotes, as Lucy calls them. Mike even gave him his very own, but he knows his doesn't work and wants nothing to do with the one he is allowed to have. Brandt has 5 teeth and I can see 3 more teeth trying to come in. In just a little over a month he will turn 1, it's hard to believe it.
Lucy made a new friend. My best friend from college came to visit and she has a daughter who is 4, and Lucy and her just had a great week playing together. They put on ballet recycles (recital) wearing their tutu's and reotards (leotard). They loved rides on Cracker's (Mike), the horse. They played house, colored, we went for walks, shopping, to the pumpkin patch, and just had a great time together. The girls only got in little "not sharing" arguments, otherwise they did great for being together for a week. It's good they love one another because they really don't have any other choice.

So good to hear from what you guys have been up to and it sounds like Brandt has got you busy! Hopefully we get to see you in thanksgiving this year again if you are around and we are too. Will give you a call!
