Turkey Day 2009 and more...

Lots of food, lots of family...good memories.



What else is going on? Adam is almost eight months now. He is crawling and has one tooth. He's a drooling machine and soaks through numerous bibs daily. Loves gnawing on my chin or anything he can get his mouth around to sooth his gums. Adam is desperately trying to pull himself up into a standing position and often gets frustrated when it doesn't work out. He's also quite the bully at daycare. He has to be separated from his buddy Ian, as Adam constantly pulls his hair and makes him cry (right in front of Ian's mom too!). He's now palled up with the baby girl Kaylee since he doesn't beat up on her.

Daniel is quite the character. He loves making Adam laugh, and it's the best thing ever to watch the two boys entertain each other. They are both so easily entertained. One thing that is a guaranteed uproar is when Daniel plays air guitar -- Adam loves this, and has the deepest belly laugh which cracks up all of us. And all the excitement eggs on Daniel even more so the laughter continues on until we are out of breath. Daniel is doing great at preschool. He has many friends, all boys, and one girl, Emma! Daniel constantly says he doesn't like girls...I know that will change some day. One thing that we need to work on with Daniel is the sharing aspect. He can't stand it when Adam gets a hold of one of his toys. He is very quick to pull things right out of Adam's hands and say, "that's mine", "that's too sharp," or "you can't put that in your mouth." One night Lincoln Logs went flying across the living room when Daniel discovered Adam had gotten a hold of his stash. The video camera was rolling! ;)
