7 Months

Things he's doing now

• Cut 2 teeth.  His bottom middle ones.  First one on Valentines the other one on his 7 month mark.
• Walking in his little walker.  Which to me he looks hilarious but I'm sure all little kids look funny when they start.
• Puts one arm up straight above his head, like superman.  Talks and leans towards it like he wants to head to wherever he's "pointing."

He's loving kids right now.  Smiles and watches them.  The other day he wouldn't take his eyes off Molly and Isabel is here and he keeps smiling and watching her.  

Here's a few new pictures.

This is the only picture of his face I got.  

Driving with Dad

Baine rode up front with us the other day.  We didn't go far so all of you who think we are bad parents settle down.  He loved it!  He must of been paying close attention because he would stick his hand on the shifter and try to move it.  That's right he's so smart!  :)

Already driving like a farmer.  Not looking at the road looking off into the fields.

This last weekend we headed to Bearlake with some friends for a little Valentines getaway.  It was Baine's first time swimming.  He didn't quite know what to think.  Too many people in the pool.  It was packed.  He never cried but he never smiled either.  

 We gave him a lemon.

 Ready to go swimming.

This is the only picture I got that wasn't fuzzy.  As you can tell me wasn't loving it.  I think he'll just be sticking to the tub with not so many people in it for a while.

 Football watching already.

 I love his fat feet!  He doesn't fit into some shoes though because they are so fat.

First time getting ready to swim!

Lately

Well if you're a avid reader of my blog you know that I try to write a update of what all of us have been up to lately.  It's usually boring I know but don't read it then.

Brady- Not much new there.  Still busy.  More steady than out of control, which is nice.  It's been nice lately because he'll come home before dark and take off most of Saturday.  I'm soaking it in.  Since his friend Kollin has been working there I think it has helped Brady with his organization.  Everyone has been working really hard to help get the business organized to they aren't running around crazy come the busy times of the year.  He's been fixing up a part of his shop for an office so when home owners come it actually has a "real business" feel to it.  He is pretty proud of that.  I don't blame him.  He loves what he does and is always trying to make it better.  What can I say, he's awesome!

Baine- Well I just did a update about him but he is doing something new all the time.  He, to me, is such a good baby.  People are always telling me that too.  Those people aren't hearing his scream though.  OH MY GOSH!  That scream.  It hurts my ears.  He doesn't do it when he cries.  He'll do it to get your attention..  For probably 3 days I guess I wasn't giving him my whole UNDIVIDED attention because even when I was playing with him he would scream.  It's a short scream.  Like a second.  He tightens his whole body up and pushes out that scream and it's loud and high-pitched.  I haven't got it on video yet.  I will.  It's awful though.  He hasn't done it for a few days so I'm hoping it was just a teeny phase.  Hopefully.

Well as for me I'm just doing what I always do, clean the house, care for the fam, do some hair on the side.  I've been missing the salon a lot lately.  I keep thinking I want to go out and work and put Baine in a daycare. Then when I actually start to think how I would do this, I can't leave him.  Not because I don't trust people and not because I think it's good for me.  Just because I think it's so good to have kids with other people besides there Mom's.  Maybe I'm wrong but Baine is getting to be a huge Mamma's boy and I want him to want to go with other people and trust them too.  I don't know.  I'll probably always stay at home as long as I can.  I guess it's good that there is family around that are willing to take him for me for a little bit if I need them too.
