We are heading out for our drive down to Disney World tomorrow. We plan to get there on Saturday. It should be interesting to drive for 15 hours with a baby in the car. We’ve broken the drive up into 3, 5 hour or so sections, one a day, so we’ll see how it goes. I packed the suitcases last night so our clothes are packed, now we just need to do diaper laundry to pack all the diapers, and pack up all the extra “stuff” we’re bringing, cameras, video cameras, books, toys etc. Should be a busy evening getting everything else ready.

I may try to update while we are gone, but probably won’t till we get back on the 1st.

Avast ye scury mates, it be talk like a pirate day. To celebrate this worthy occasion, I shall drink the rum this evening, in between packing for our Disney trip tomorrow.

Okay so I’m a bloddy landlubber and can’t keep up the pirate talk long. Happy talk like a pirate day all!

He did it! He has been scootching for awhile, remember the pictures from here? The past week or so he has been getting on his hands and knees and rocking trying to figure out how to go forward.

Last night he was really close to pulling it off. Today he did it, about an hour ago so right around 12:30 he moved forward on his hands and knees. He didn’t go far, but he’s got it. Now we really need to babyproof everything, since I am sure he’ll get faster and better at it really quickly.

I’ll try to get a video of it or pictures up soon, when I can actually catch him doing it.

We had a generally quiet labor day. Saturday we ran some errands, picked up a couple of items we needed. Sunday we went to my in-laws for a cookout, it was nice Desmond got to play with his grandparents a lot. K got to run around and get lots of food. So everyone was happy. Monday I played with Desmond a bunch. Dan painted the doors, actually he did that Saturday and Sunday as well. We now have brown doors and a yellow trim, it looks okay, the yellow is a little bright, but it works (we have to use colors approved by our home owners association, thank you planned community or something). Sunday we also moved a bunch of stuff into the attic including Desmond’s swing and bouncy chair, he is growing so fast.

We’re pretty sure he had a growth spurt Saturday night as well, since he was definitely taller on Sunday.

Other then that not much happened it was pretty quiet. Nice and semi-relaxing. The rest of the month is going to be busy, next weekend we’re in Richmond for my cousin’s wedding, my Mom is up the following weekend and then we go to Disney for the last two weekends of the month. So it was nice to have a semi-relaxing weekend.
