Keeping Things Moving....

Arden is a schoocher! As of the last 2 days, she can use her arms to pull herself along and get to whatever she wants... to put in her mouth. In no time at all she's going to be up and crawling. Then I'm going to need to clone myself.




Big brother love for Arden! Carter comes over every once and a while and gives her a hug, kiss, and/or funny look, but mostly he just goes about his business. She, however, watches him with a fascination and love that is just amazing.



Carter is pretty amazing. Here he is with his two girlfriends, Mira and Emerald. "No fighting, ladies, there's enough of my lap for you both to get comfortable."



Greg (or Papa) came to visit very quickly over the weekend. Here's Carter getting comfy in his lap while being read one of his favorite books. This one stars Elmo and Grover. If there's any marketing that's gotten through to Carter, it's definitely this book. We were in the grocery store a week ago and he started saying, "Elmo. Elmo. ELMO!" I was all, "Huh?", until I looked over my shoulder and spied a mylar Elmo head hovering above the floral department.



Carter has turned our breakfast nook into his private art studio. Here he paints watercolors. Actually, I think Mommy helped a lot on this one, but he has lots of self-produced Rohrschat test coming out of this setup.




In other news, this is the last picture you'll see of Arden in the Bumbo on top of something else. Just as she has learned to schooch, she's also found a way to escape the Bumbo. Safety first!



Artist Carter surveys his outdoor work!




After a long day of learning, Arden rests against Papa's shoulder. What a snuggly little bear!
