Crawling, Sitting and 2 Twenty Pounders

Sorry it's been so long but boy have I been busy. Rowan has officialy started crawling and as of yesterday mastered the art of sitting up on his own. He was pulling up in his crib, so we had to lower it to the lowest setting. A tooth appeared in his mouth the other day and I have a feeling the second one isn't far behind. Kieran is another story. He makes no attemps to crawl or sit on his own, but boy can he get around in his walker. I feel bad for him sometimes, since Rowan just crawls all over him. Kieran gets him back though by pulling on his hair.



At their 8 month check up:

Rowan
Heigth: 28 1/2 inches
Weight: 21 pounds 8 ounces
Kieran
Height : 29 inches
Weight: 20 pounds

My father and Patrick have been working on finishing the basement for some additional space. It's is coming along great and I can't wait until we are down there enjoying all of that open space. The toy to kid ratio has shy rocketed and it is getting crowded in this living room.

Alex and Shannon were in town this past weekend. Alex and I took the boys to the beach in the afternoon. Kieran wasn't a big fan of the waves, all Rowan wanted to do was crawl on the sand. Instead he took a header down the beach an almost ended up in the water. He was covered in sand but it didn't bother him.

We went pumpkin picking this past Sunday. I was a little leery about making the trek on a Sunday afternoon, with traffic being outrageous. Patrick took a few back roads and we were able to get there in minimal time. The boys got their first pumpkins and enjoyed chewing on some gourds.
