He's Going Places

And by places I mean Everywhere! He sees something he wants and he goes for it. At the moment that usually means dog food, trash cans, toilets, brother's toys, and books! We thought our Little Alvie would be a late mover, but he is proving us wrong. In the last week he has become very busy! Unfortunately we have been away from Daddy all week so he has missed some of Alvie's new found mobility. He has also picked up a few new tricks! Peek-a-Boo, Waving, and an interesting hybrid of Clapping and Peek-a-Boo that involves slapping the sides of his own face. Our sweet boy continues to impress us with what may seem simple feats to others but amazing accomplishments to us! I love you Alvie! Even though you are the reason I am up posting at Two in the Morning! Here is a little video of Alvie demonstrating some of his new skills. Hopefully this will tide Daddy over till we get home!

Alvie is such a little Hercules! Do we all feel a little bad about the day when Ashton is out-weighed and out-strenghtened by his little brother?

mobility is a big milestone. Personally I always dread this one. I'm sure Ashton will be a big helper and make sure his brother isn't getting into all the gross stuff. My kids think it's funny each time Morgan dips a cup into the toilet (her newest hobby). SICK!!

Way to go Alvie! He's as talented as he is cute. We miss you guys!

Those are two very cute little boys.

Tell Ashton that I am sorry that the doorbell interrupted our conversation about his school preparations and that I would love a picture of his "bumblebee" backpack. Bumblebee is so very cool.
