our baby brother is 8 months old!


Anders continues to be a very happy and social baby who loves playing with his siblings.  In the past month he has mastered his army crawl and can move around at a rapid pace.  Anders still loves to eat but unfortunately hasn't improved upon his sleep habits.  He really doesn't go more than a few hours at night without crying and trying to get us to come in.  To say we're frustrated is an understatement, but it's hard to stay too mad when he's so sweet and smiley during the daytime.  Anders' other favorite activities include shaking his head "no", mimicking facial expressions, waving, getting into everything, and picking things up with his feet.  And while it may be too early to say, it would appear as though Anders might be our first kid to actually resemble Daddy!

swim lessons


Much to Whitney's delight, she started swim lessons this past week.  Since she is 3 years old they don't allow a parent to go in with her, but she was totally fine with that.  In fact she seemed to love everything about the lesson.  Even though it's early, I can't help but wonder if she'll take after her pops and swim team might be in her future!
