We’ve had a big month of progress! David is eating really well, and enjoying picking up Cherrios and other finger foods and is a big fan of crackers. He is army crawling everywhere and pretty close to actually crawling. His main target whenever he gets going is wires. He LOVES to play with wires and I have a big nest of them in front of my desk.

Jack has really enjoyed the house hunting process this month and couldn’t wait to see Miss Kristen each time we were to look at another house.  She let him ring doorbells and pop the key out of the lockbox and of course he talked her ear off.

I’ve begun punishing him for arguing when I’ve already said no, so he feels his only recourse is to assume the most angry look he can muster and get in my face so I can see how frustrated he is.
