Update

Ian is no longer slow at crawling around he moves at a rather quick pace. His new thing is attempting to pull himself up into a standing position on various things. He has also discovered that he can crawl on our hard wood floor but that it is easier if he crawls on his hands and feet -forget using your knees. So his little bum sticks up high in the air.

Just about to get in the bath -ignore the sweet potatoes all over his face.

Ian playing the Wii with Hunter.


Ian's new favorite toy - a little toy piano, it was Hunter's when he was little.  Ian lights up the moment he spots it.



In other news Tim got into Nursing School. He starts in February. He applied for the spring since this way we would only have to have someone watch Ian for 4 months until the summer then I could take care of him since I have the summers off while Tim was in school. Unfortunately we just found out that Tim also has the summer off and starts again in the fall -uggg. Don't ask me what we are going to do because I have know idea at the time being. But one must ask how could someone who already has a bachelors and is now going to Nursing School do something like this....How do you replace a light bulb on a really high ceiling when you don't own a ladder? Take two bistro chairs -wait still not tall enough - put one of the filing cabinets ontop of the bistro chairs -reach on your tippie toes -and pray you don't fall to the left down the set of 14 more stairs. Yes bachelors people?!? Love you babe!

Have you ever thought to ask your dad if you could borrow his ladder?

congrats to tim! yeah, i'm all for borrowing bruce's ladder too. good luck convincing tim. that stinks about the whole summer off thing. hopefully it will just be a nice memory building time to get you through the fall.

fun to see ian standing up. he's getting so big.

Oh man, standing at just 6 months! What a fast mover! That stinks about school, I guess that means you guys will just have to live it up this summer since you'll both be around. Wish I was there to watch IAN for you.

When our light bulb goes out I guess I know who to call:) Let us know if you need help with Ian.

Congrats Tim! That is awesome. Ian is so cute- I would die if Hallie was that mobile already! If you ever need help watching him, let me know. We'll be close again soon and we just chill at home everyday! We would love to play with him.

Yay for Tim!! I have often wondered how we will change that light bulb when it goes out- now I know! Now on to Ian--HE IS PULLING HIMSELF UP??? I am amazed by his moving abilities- Lilly is still sittin' still!! I am sure we can all work out a baby sitting schedule!
