Happy Friday!

This weekend is going to be "pool-a-licious" sunny and 89! Maybe Austin will be pooped and sleep through the night! Still teething bad and waking up once or twice a night. We were so spoiled before! Still, he is pretty good compared to other teething babies. He just gets upset when his sleep is interrupted by it. He gets that from me! Have a great weekend, and if your in the mood to swim the Kirkland pool will be open!

Climbing to the top

Austin's new favorite activity is to climb stairs. Stressful for us but exciting for him. He's proud of himself too. When we got to the top he clapped his hands and laughed. In his world he just climbed Mt. Everest! I don't have a picture of it because I was behind him on catching duty and Keith was not home, but trust me...it was very cute! We are hoping for pool weather this weekend and we will try to video him swimming.

Never caught up!

We all took a weekend off to play and now I am so far behind I can't see straight! I can't wait until Austin is big enough to put to work;) He is so close to walking on his own it's scary! He can pretty much one hand it around any furniture. Although, after seeing him in the pool, he may swim first! He was so funny today singing along in gibberish to songs. He knows what he's saying and takes it very serious. I heard from Dude Buddy that he is also pretty good at making frog noises. Mom and I got to hear him try to make pig noises in the car and I was laughing so hard I almost had an asthma attack. So, I could imagine how entertaining the little ribbetts sounded;) Oh, and Kim...he has really warmed up to Elmo and it's one of his favorite toys now. Of course he likes the box even more, but isn't that always the case? Oh, and wish Keith luck because in a couple of weeks I will be traveling for work and he and the little man will be on their own.
