Autumn and Cedar Update




Don't worry, I'll get back to the hunting posts soon, but wanted to get a few recent pics of Autumn and Cedar out. Cedar is growing fast, even these pics seem "old" to me and Amy. She is pretty much mobile. She's not really crawling but still manages to get where she wants with a modified army crawl/arm pull. Her signature move is called "the Superman"where she arches on her belly. I didn't know backs could bend like that. She's working on solid foods. We ditched feeding her with a spoon and just put stuff on her tray and let her have at it, she's happier with that arrangement. She has four top teeth and two bottom ones. She does not sleep through the night yet and neither do we. Autumn is becoming a great big sister. She gives Cedar lots of kisses and squeezes. She's also becoming quite the little helper. She helps with housework such as loading the dishwasher, sweeping, laundry, and being a "gopher." She even helps me grind venison. She can go down the slide at the pool all by herself. She loves to sing and astounds me sometimes with the songs she knows such as the raindrops and kittens song from Sound of Music. She's great at cutting paper with scissors, not so great yet at picking up all the little shards. She can talk a streak and Amy and I can actually understand 1/2 of it. Fun times.

Andrew did a modified crawl for a while... mainly because he was too impatient to learn to do the regular version. Sounds like Cedar might be the same.

As usual, cute pics!
