Really???!!

Donovan has decided that sitting and crawling is not good enough anymore standing and pulling himslef up is way more fun. He pulls himself up onto just about anything he can grab onto including pant legs, screen doors, tables, you name it he tries it.

Payton is Donovan's new obsession and Payton is not too excited about the obsessee. Donovan doesn't quite understand the idea of being gentle and that we pet Payton, not grab his fur out in chunks. Payton runs away whenever he sees the monster coming. He is taking trips outside on a more regular basis.

It is amazing how there is NO fear of Payton at all. He barks at him and tries to play and Donovan isn't even phased by the 140 lbs beast! Until he starts knocking him over, then I think it may change.

8 months and always a mess!

I am not sure why my son always looks like he just rolled in dirt and is soaking wet, and has a orange nose. He ends up naked by 2:00 or so, all pictures with cloths on are before that. I was going through all of his 0-3 month cloths and they are all so clean maybe a few stains from explosive diapers, but spotless. His 6-9 month cloths are all going in the garbage, stains on every single one.

Trip To Florida

We traveled down to Florida this last weekend, for our nephew and Tim's godson "Ja's" baptism! It was a great trip but way too short! We hung out with the Lazaridis family, played with the kids, ate great meals and talked.

Donovan did pretty good on the plane, screamed for the firs 15-20 minutes then wore himself out and slept most of the plane ride. I am sure the people sitting next to us were happy about that. He was teething and his top two teeth poked through on the last day. He was teething last trip we took too! (Like his earrings??) He was in toy heaven!!! They had so many great toys!! I think he put about every single one in his mouth!!!

Johnny, is about 7 weeks younger then D and it was really fun to see them interact. I wasn't sure they were even going to know that eachother existed but they did. they were interested in a lot of the same toys to put in their mouths! They are too very cute boys! Alex who is 2 1/2 is talking up a storm and is such a girl!! It was so fun to see how much she has grown up!!
