Anderson Is Growing Up!


I cannot believe how quickly Anderson's "babyhood" is flying by! After getting back from vacation Anderson has begun many "big boy" things...
- He has teeth... two and I think like four others are coming in at one time. I feel so bad for him. I can tell he is really bothered by them and Tylenol is not helping that much.
- We are brushing his teeth... he does not like it too much right now.
- He started eating Puffs and Cheerios. He also likes banana chunks.
- He is trying to stand on his own. He wants to stand up alone so bad!

Anderson is such a fun little boy. He is ALL boy that is for sure. I was talking with my mom tonight about how different he is from Karoline. He is ALWAYS wanting to be on the floor and playing. He does not want to finish his meals so he can get down and play. Karoline always wants to finish a meal :) He can play with the same toy for a long time but Karoline was never really entertained by toys. Karoline liked books and would want me to read all day long. Anderson will only let me read to him for about 5 minutes at a time. Karoline would never crawl off of the carpet onto the hardwoods... Anderson wants to crawl all over the house and he is FAST! Anderson is very brave and adventurous and that is TOTALLY opposite of Karoline. Karoline likes to lay in bed and kind of play before falling sleep and Anderson is asleep the second I lay him down. I really am amazed at the difference in my babies! Also, another funny thing about Anderson is that he has a specific place to go #2!! He has to go in his exersaucer! It is SO FUNNY! He will not go anywhere else. All I know is that I LOVE both of them so much and all their different ways. They are so special to me and I am so blessed with AMAZING children.

We have been going non-stop since we got home and we finally stayed home all day today and it was wonderful! I got a lot done and the kids enjoyed not running around town. TJ is at rehearsal tonight and he is bringing me home a Starbucks! I am so excited! I have hardly had a second to take pictures so sorry mom, this is all I have right now!
