AND WE HAVE A CRAWLER!!! (and other amazing accomplishments)










Will never stops amazing us!  This month, at approximately 6 and a half months, Will started to crawl.  Within a weeks time he was a pro, even pulling himself up to stand and trying to stand solo!  He is so determined and so proud of himself, it is truly magical to see!  This has opened up a whole new world for all of us!  Will being mobile is so fun and it absolutely warms my heart to see him start to be a part of the action that he has been watching for the past 6 months.  However, it is also a lot more to manage, especially with a big sister who loves having her brother be a part of the mix, but does not love him playing with her things!  Needless to say, I thought I was always hopping before---now I am non-stop!  Will also had a huge growth spurt this month, waking every 2 hours to eat!  No doubt from all his moving about too---Now will eats three good meals of baby food a day, and still loves his bottles and nursing too!  Bottom line--he is a good eater and a great mover!  Sleeping through the night is on the horizon, and while it happens occasionally, we can't wait for it to become permanent!  We also watched Will develop his language this month, no more simple babble, he is trying to form words and connect them to the outside world.  It is really cool to see how similar and how different all of this milestones are compared to Emmalee.  We love that they are both such amazing little people, but have such individual personalities and ways of developing.  We still find Will to be the most easy going and happy little guy, and his smile is award winning, it is the sweetest smile a little boy could have! He also has the sweetest hair a boy could have too! Growing straight up and out, and is super blonde!  It is perfect with his smile and blue eyes...heart melting!  I also love that Emmalee and Will are developing a relationship.....sometimes it is challenging, but overall they are growing to love each other and it is wonderful!  Overall this month has been so magical, and has been full of milestones that let us know how quickly our little man is growing up!  I wish time could slow down a bit, but I am also so thankful that I am able to be with him for each step!
