Jackson started crawling on Tuesday morning, at 7 months and 10 days old.  Yay Jack! 

Thursday morning, he pulled up for the first time!  He is currently pulling himself up again.  Yay Jack!... but hey buddy.. SLOW DOWN, would ya?!

At about 1:50 am, Lily came into our room with a nightmare.  If Rob doesn't hear the door open and wake, I usually poke him in the back and tell him that one of the kids needs him.  (Our babies tend to sleep poorly enough that first year that unless they are up sick, he tends to get up with anyone over age 1 in the night, and I am just up with the baby).  So anyway, he wakes up when I elbow him, and I guess Lily's face must have been in his face literally, because Rob started SCREAMING in terror!!!  I had to grab his leg and yell to him right next to me "Rob, it's Lily, she came in with a bad dream and youre screaming at her!.  Poor Lily, I cant imagine what she must have been thinking.  He did wake, and grabbed her in a hug, and we all cracked up.  Grace got out of bed, she came in to find out WTF was going on.. and of course, the little man woke up.  And stayed up,  and crawled all over me and clawed at my face and sat up cute and started babbling.

So now I'm awake, and he's awake, and we are partying into the night.  Yay.  *sigh*

I will get some standing baby pics up soon!

Grace and Lily have been taking gymnastics for several years.  We love their teacher, Ms Q.  Each year at the end of the session, they have an exhibition for the parents to come to, and we got some fun pictures I wanted to share:
