sibling love on Valentine's Day
{It took many takes because Eydie was cranky that I had rushed her to get dressed instead of letting her try to do everything by herself until she realizes she can't and asks for help.
And Gavin was crying because he had been up longer than usual and was ready for a nap.
And we were running about 20 minutes late for Young Children's World.
But...we got the picture. And that is all we will remember when we look back at it.}
sweet, drooly, sitting-up-by-himself, fluffy-haired boy
7 months old and just about to start crawling.
He only goes in reverse so far.
straight out of the bath and watching daddy closely
He's probably motivated to learn to crawl so that he can escape the clutches of his big sister. The other day I was in my bathroom and heard her saying to him, "Gavin, I telled ya to listen and you didn't so you're in time out and you gotta stop freaking out." I looked in on them and he was not freaking out, just looking at her blankly. At least I know in the midst of her meltdowns she hears and understands me even if she doesn't always respond.
We had a nice and windy weekend. Yesterday we watched ACU play baseball at McMurry and while Eydie played a game on my phone with KK (Brandon's mom) and Gavin slept on K-Papa (my dad), I thought how lucky my kids are to live in the same town as both sets of grandparents.
