Fangs

Our little Hoocha has his eye teeth growing in, and if you look up into his open mouth, they definitely look like fangs. He'll probably have more teeth in by Halloween, so we need to take pictures pretty quick here.

Those Neighbor Kids

Sometimes mommies get their children's names mixed up, calling one by another's name. But you know that she's had one of those days when she calls one of her kids by the neighbor kid's name.

Black Eye Photo

Our nine month old had some pictures taken for a cutest baby in the history of the universe type of contest. Not long before the photo shoot, he tangled it up with a chair and got a black eye. Hopefully they can touch it up.

Cruisin' For A Bruisin'

Our nine month old is "cruising." He's essentially walking but holding on to something his entire path length. Walking along the entire front of the couch or the table or something else. But at the end, he sometimes falls. Cruisin' for a bruisin'.

The Lingering Tooth

Our oldest just lost his top front tooth. A kid in his class had the same loose tooth, and it was loose in the same way. It was like they had a race to see whose tooth came out first. The other kid won by just a few days. But ours put his tooth in a Lego contraption to await the tooth fairy. Or was it an agent of the federal government? Anyway, the hole in his face is very large.

On a side note, our youngest has had his two bottom teeth broken through for a couple months now, but is now having what appears to be his eye teeth come in on top.

Pillow Flop

I found our nine month old doing something odd yesterday. He was playing with his brothers on the floor, when I saw him sit up on his knees, raise his hands all the way up in the air, then fall face forward into a pile of pillows. He repeated this about twenty times. Amazing.

Level Sleep

Our nine month old is sleeping in a more regular position. We had propped up one end of his crib mattress a while back with some towels to allow his head to be raised because he had a cold. Mrs. Scott took the towels out yesterday, and he's sleeping more regularly with his head pointed toward the window.
