A Bundle of Myrrh

Saturday we returned from our Great American Road Trip and I will have pictures to share from that event, but first I must post these pictures of Gerhardt who turned 8 months old a very long time ago!

Gerhardt has had a very busy 8th month. He is crawling everywhere now and pulling up on whatever he can reach.

Some video updates on Gerhardt for your viewing pleasure. He is sitting very well by himself now. Of course that huge diaper helps.

Love that laugh!

Lovin’ a juicy rib! Just don’t tell him he’s surrounded in pink.

Big Sis can be a big help!

This little fella is proving to be “all boy” already. He gets himself around really well now on his tummy (mostly just going backwards still) and in the walker. And is beginning to open cabinets and drawers in the kitchen. He tried to hoist himself up out of his walker into a towel drawer the other day. I can tell he’s gonna be a bigger handful than even Clara!

Is that not the look of a trouble maker?!

Or a sweetheart? Okay, both.

We’ve gotten him back to sleeping through the night at least. We moved him back into Phil’s office at night and that has done the trick. We think the house may have made too many noises he could hear in the living room. Plus with him that close to the girls room I tend to jump up to get him at the first cries so he doesn’t wake them up. Not good.

It’s hard to believe that just 6 months ago he was this gangly little thing!

Gerhardt turned six months old on Monday! That’s HALF A YEAR OLD if you didn’t know!
