Catch-up

I have so many things I could post on here, but just have not had the time. Most of the pictures I needed to post are on a memory card that I left at school. Here are a few that were on the card that was in my camera.

Our little giraffe. Karter didn't mind wearing his costume at all.

Keagan wanted to be Percy from Thomas the Train. In the past, he has always worn his costume. This year he did not like his costume. I don't know if it was not what he was expecting or what.

Costume parade at school. He only wore the costume because he wanted my mom to bring us Sonic for lunch.

Fall Festival at church. He wore his costume for about 2 minutes. He didn't want to play any games, but when I told him he could take the costume off he cheered right up and played the rest of the night.

Today Keagan had his first tumbling meet. Since school started he has been taking tumbling on Wednesday afternoons in the cafeteria. He really enjoys it because four kids that are in his class are school are also in his tumbling class. At the meet each kid did two tumbling passes. Almost all of the pictures I took today were blury. These were the best I got.

Patiently waiting his turn. There were about 15 kids in his group. He was the next to last kid to tumble. He did a great job sitting and waiting his turn.

Starting his second tumbling pass-he had already done a cartwheel and was now doing the spider walk.

Keagan got third place!

Cecil was able to come and watch before he had to go to the field. I guess there was just too much excitement for Karter to handle!

Hopefully it won't be so long before I post again.

6 & 7 months

On Monday, November 8th, Karter turned 7 months old. Since I never got a 6 month post written, I am just going to combine them together.

-at his 6 month check-up he was 16 lbs. 14 oz and 27 inches long
-wears size 3 diapers
-wears 6-9 month clothes, needs the 9 month for the length
-eats every 3 hours during the day
-sleeps pretty good at night, usually asleep between 8:00-8:30 and sleeps until about 6:30
-still doesn't have any teeth, we have thought he has been teething for months, but not teeth yet
-is eating fruits, vegetables, and cereal, so far he has liked everything I have fed him
-has been sitting up for a while
-had been trying to crawl for a while, but started doing it consistently on Monday
-can pull himself up on me if I am in the floor with him, has done it one time in his crib while I was standing there
-LOVES Keagan, he smiles and laughs all the time at him
-is much happier playing in the floor now that he can sit and crawl
-LOVES his pacifier, I am afraid I am going to have trouble taking it away from him when he is older

Keagan got in the crib with Karter this morning "to make sure he didn't fall out and bust his head open". Cecil will hopefully get the crib lowered tomorrow.
