First steps!



It is all happening so fast! Vaughn's second tooth is coming in right behind the first AND our little man has decided it is time to start walking! He has lingered standing quite a few times but we have a few small little steps the last time or two! It is such a proud moment that we just had to share.




Yay Mad Men and Modern Family! Two great shows!

He's a big boy!

Oh...I am a little sad and so excited for our little boy! He finally cut his first tooth and he is enjoying scraping it on anything he can get his mouth around. It is sharp! I was really starting to wonder about it. He is getting close to 9 months old and all the kids in his class already have them. Now it is here and I can stop worrying.

Also, Monday marks another milestone as Vaughn moves up to the older infant side of the day care room. He is SO mobile now and this room will be easier for him to get around with his crab walk and cruising. He will also be with some other kids that are walking and seeing that will definately make him want strive for it. I have confirmation that if they see him walking at school...that they will not tell me and let me see it for myself. I told them I would be crushed if I missed it and they said I wouldn't be the first parent to express this concern.


And I am going to officially say his first word is Da-da. I wasn't ready to call it for a while because we always got a string of da-da-da-das but now it seems pretty definate. Video above is him babbling.We hear Ma-ma every now and then and I swear he is working on doggie next.
How cool is that?

He is growing up so fast!!! Our family pictures (above) were over 2 months ago!
Love to all our friends and family looking in on us from afar!

Baby's first trip to the beach!


Vaughn got to go to the beach for the first time. He wasn't thrilled. How could you with 100 degree heat, blazing sun, sticky sunscreen and a mouthful of sand? Mom and dad learned our lesson and I think we need to wait for baby to be older to try this again. We did relax while we were in Wilmington but Micah didn't get the beach time we went for. Baby had other plans.
