we have a crawler!!

as usual, the quality sucks but you get the idea. i guess technically he is mostly moving like an inch-worm, but its more moving than he's ever done before so we're calling it crawling! today already he managed to eat an animal cracker than was under the couch, knock over B's stupid fake plant twice (it has now been put back in the closet), stole bubba's train/hotwheel/cars toy a million and one times, and opened and shut the drawer on the entertainment center. *sigh* and i thought that the house was baby proofed, HA! guess i'm going to have to watch them both like hawks now!

i also wanted to share a couple pics from over the weekend. honestly, i have some super cute ones from today but i'm to lazy to transfer them from the camera, re size them, then upload them. maybe tomorrow. but anyways, enjoy these...they are super cute and should fulfill any fixes that may be necessary! :D

bubba thinks that he is SO funny...

awww...how cute!

what a peeping tom! good thing it was our house!

silly brothers!

here are some pics from today:

playing in pooks' crib

noses and toes in bubba's big boy crib!

pookie and me!

who do you know :)

they are getting so big!

i think i figured out the source of my funk.

my kids are growing up WAY too fast.

pooks...ah i love him but he is going to be trouble. i can see it already. he comes off all innocent but he is a thinker. you know what he did today?? I can't even believe this:

he was laying flat on his back on the floor and proceeded to sit up simply by bending his waist. i'm not kidding either. 21 lbs, 9.5 months old and he can sit up by lifting his entire upperbody straight up. he used one hand off to the side to assist but the majority of the work was on his abs. crazy kid! he's like a muscle man!

he also played peek-a-boo by himself with me and bubba today. he would take his blankey-bear and cover his face then grin really big when we said "peek a boo". Then he'd cover his head again...he'd switch from going super slow to going really fast--like he was seeing if we could keep up! he's done it once or twice in the past but never for long periods at time.

here is a pic of him holding his own bottle; which he has done for awhile but he's never been able to do it sitting up before. usually he lays on the boppy but as you can see, he just sat up and kept going strong.
and bubba...he is talking more, understanding even more than that and is becoming so opinionated. yesterday he woke up from his nap and came out into the living room. i asked him if he has a good nap, he said "no". I asked him what he dreamed about and he said "fish". point blank just answered. today at target the cashier took his milk to scan it and bubba looked at him and said "argh!" (can we tell he likes pirates!)
its just hard i guess, seeing that my babies aren't really babies anymore :(

A weeks worth of pics

i've been in a funk lately and haven't had time to update my blog. i think i'm getting sick, i know i'm tired and i've been super busy at work so i haven't had time to add pics. (it takes more time that you think once i resize them!). anyways, here are some pics of the boys from march 1st to today. pooks modeling another pair of babyleggs. with Stewie from "family guy" on them.

me and pookie smooching!

the boys being silly together. and yes, they did this completely on their own.

them eating lunch yesterday, whole grain mac&cheese and cut up hotdogs. bubba refused to eat off his own tray and he also insisted on saying ''cheese!!"

hmmm...who does he remind you of in this pic??
hint--hint
overall the "big'' news is bubba has moved up to his big boy bed! well okay, so that envolved taking off the side rail to his crib, but still. it was emotional, especially since B did it without me. we did go ahead and get a safety rail for a twin bed, hence why it looks huge compared to the toddler bed its on. Cost wise, its better this way. We won't need a toddler rail for pooks so it just made more sense.
(btw, he doesn't usually sleep in his shoes and jacket, he fell asleep in the car and i carried him to his bed)

pooks' little teeth are *finally* all the way through the gum line. you can now see his pearly whites when he smiles. he stood up in the playpen again today so i just know that one of these days, he's gonna take off!
