Declan

Declan isn't crawling yet, but he is up on his hands and knees rocking back and forth. We keep thinking any moment he will be crawling. He can get from a sitting position into a crawling position and then back again with ease. He surprised me recently by showing us how he can pull himself to a standing position. He seems to be doing everything in the opposite order than AJ did. The best part of the whole trip though was how much fun AJ had playing with all his cousins. I wish we could all get together more often.

4th of July family fun

We had a fantastic time over the 4th of July weekend. We went to Dave's grandmother's house that sits on Eagle Rock Lake. What fun! Dave's sister brought her boat, Dave's aunt and uncle brought their boat and jet skis. Oh my! AJ had a blast! He loved, loved the jet skis. He wanted Dave to take him faster and faster. He was the same way on the the tube pulled behind the boat. He kept getting braver and braver. He wanted to stand, throw himself off to the size to be dragged in the water, and the whole time he kept saying he wanted to go faster and hit the bumps and fly in the air. He is way more brave than his mommy. It was awesome to see AJ so happy.
