Everything Will Change

So we've reached a major milestone in the journey of parenthood this weekend. Friday night, Brandon and I decided that we should let Timothy down on the floor to play so I threw some of his toys down there with him and we set him down and he took off CRAWLING to get a toy. Of course we were happy, but a little scared too. This changes everything now. We have a mobile child now. He could get around before, just scooting and rolling, but now he's crawling!!! Sorry if I seem a little weirded out by it, I just honestly didn't expect this to happen for another month or two. But he absolutely loves being able to move.

Yesterday we had this big thing at church, like a carnival, and we were all sitting on the ground with another couple that has a baby girl Madeline that was born a few days before Timothy and they were so cute playing together. Timothy kept grabbing her legs and she tried to bite him on the head. It was so funny to watch him playing with another baby. Oh yeah, and we had a chili cook-off at the church and Brandon won so he's all happy about that now. I couldn't eat his chili, it was too spicy for me, but I guess the judges liked it! He was pretty proud of it, he got a new crockpot and a certificate.

Another fun Timothy story...a couple of weeks ago he was getting fussy so I put my finger up to his mouth and was moving it up and down to make a funny noise with his lips (you know what I mean, right?), and now he has started trying to do it himself with his fist and the other night at dinner he grabbed Tyler hand and was trying to make him do it to him. It's amazing what they learn! Plus it's really funny to watch him try to do it by himself.

I think those are all the funny stories for now, I don't know when I'll be on here again this week, it will be a hectic week at work and at home. I'll keep ya'll updated on Halloween activities, so far the plans are to go visit my dad's aunt in the nursing home and then go to Heather's to trick or treat. Have a good week!
