Callia loves Mario

Today Callia and I were at the computer and she was playing Mario 64. After playing for a bit, I noticed that she was just sitting there not touching the controller, and just staring at the screen. When I asked what she was doing, she replied "I don't want to wake Mario up. He's sleeping." It's funny how different kids see the world.

Chick-fil-A Fun!

Thaddeus is really getting around now, and he and Callia are having a ball testing out his skills on the Chick-fil-A playground! We love Chick-fil-A because the employees are always cheerful, they play Christian music, and they keep their playground fairly clean. Thaddeus loves it because we let him crawl around. :)

In these first two pictures you can see Thaddeus pulling up, the third one is Callia with stick-on earrings all over her face, and the last two show how happy Thad is to be crawling.

Gettin' Around

Thaddeus is pulling up now. He pulled up for the first time a little less than two weeks ago when he crawled over to me (which was a first for crawling to a destination and I was thinking "I should blog that"), and pulled up on the couch. The next day he did it in his crib. Now he is doing it all over the place, and he was standing at the edge of my chair just a moment ago when I decided I'd finally just DO IT and blog about it. :)

I'm not sure how to say when he first started crawling. I think it was just three or four weeks ago that he first crawled a little but as I said it was a little under two weeks ago that he went anywhere with a destination.

I'm sure he could have done any of it much sooner but he's a pretty laid back little guy and would rather just wait to move until his mama carries him somewhere. Until now.

Second tooth

Thad cut his second tooth today! It was the top one on the left side, directly above his first tooth. Usually babies cut their second bottom tooth before cutting their first top tooth, but Thad is not worried about being like everyone else. :)

I probably wouldn't have even noticed it, but the doctor was checking to see if that may be part of the reason why he isn't sleeping. And there it was! A little hard line in his gums.
