Look what I can do!

While we were in Iowa Austin started sitting up without falling backward all by himself! Well, he can't get to the sitting position by himself yet, but I can sit him up and if he sees something he wants he'll fall on his tummy to crawl to it. His second tooth also came in last week and I can feel another swollen spot where another is about to come through. Here he is in the bathtub. I think his big belly is balancing him!

He is growing up too fast for me. Sometimes we wonder if we're done having kids. When I do have the thought that we could be done I then think Austin needs to slow down for me to enjoy the baby stages a little bit longer. He is such a happy baby. Even when he's tired he will sit and smile or giggle at us for the longest time. He absolutely loves his brothers. He watches their every move.

Here's the proof-

Step 1: pull up using daddy's shorts to get to my knees.

Step 2: lean forward a bit more and stand up!!!

Step 3: manuveur to the step stool and try the same thing. Oh wow! Hey look at me.

He did end up falling over, but there were no tears. What a tough kid!
