Update on our doings

I haven't done a "progress" report on the boys in a while and lots of fun stuff is going on with them.
Reese is officially on the move, he's been crawling for about 2 weeks now. So far he's only gone back and forth from the living room to the kitchen - but that's enough! I still haven't baby proofed the house and so I'm always on high alert.
He's also pulling to stand, which means that he's met another milestone on the way to walking.

He most noticeable trait is his hair. People used to comment on his size but that's kinda leveled out for his age and so now everyone talks about his hair. It is wild, fuzzy and so soft. It will not lay down, and why would we want it to? When he gets tired it starts to droop a little, but after he rests its back up.


A favorite activity is tearing up magazines.
FYI - that's a fake fire in the background, he's in no danger.

His nickname is prairie dog because he's always got his head up, twisted around to see what's happening.


Check out the fuzz head!
 
 
Vin spends his free time playing with cars, Lego's and coloring. I'm amazed at how many hours he can stay occupied with a coloring book. It's wonderful!
He's preparing for his Christmas dance show and they'll be caroling at the mall. Yesterday he was practicing his hand moves for "Santa Clause is Coming To Town".
He's a great brother, often singing to Reese and sharing toys. Reese cries when any of us leaves the room, so Vin will yell down the hall ... "I'll be right back Reese!"
So proud of the tall lego stairs. He worked on this forever last night.  I don't know if he'll ever let me move this off the kitchen counter.

His own LegoLand, complete with a shark tank and an observation tower.


The pool is complete and it was COLD but we did it! Vin can't wait until next summer.
