Quick Trip??

I am not sure when I will learn that a quick trip to the store, even if it is just to get one thing just doesn't happen with 3 little boys. I had to run into Michael's to get some buttons to finish up Carter's Halloween costume. I had planned to do it in the morning but Cam's doctors appointment took longer than expected. Sooo I had to resort to going with all 3 of them. No big deal I thought, it's in and out, ONE thing, we can do this. As soon as we get into the store Carter says "I have to go to the bathroom mom!" At first I told him he had to wait but then I could tell he really had to go. We were close to the bathroom so I pointed him in the right direction and told him to hurry and come right back. Well then of course Gage has to go to the bathroom. So we all head back there. Carter had just snuck into the bathroom so I pointed Gage towards the men's room and told him to go in with Carter. Well the men's room and the emergency exit doors were right next to each other so you can imagine my surprise as I all of a sudden hear the fire alarm going off and I look up to see Gage, with terror and near tears in his eyes, running toward me. Carter came running out 2 seconds later, pants half done up asking what was going on. I couldn't stop laughing. So we did eventually get our buttons but not without a little bit of drama first!

Boys Boys Boys

This little ham is now 8 months old. (The pictures were taken when he was 6 months... Sorry no new pics, my camera died when I dropped it in the lake!)
He has a lot more hair now and believe it or not is even bigger!
He has the biggest smile and has won the hearts of all of the moms at Carter's school and on his soccer team (they're all done having babies).
He has been sitting like a champ since he was 5 months old and as a result has NO desire to be mobile and we're okay with that! He does roll around when he feels the need to get somewhere. He is VERY content just sitting and watching us or playing with toys.
He is the cuddliest baby I have had and I L-O-V-E it!
Loves to eat all things mushy, I haven't found anything this kid dislikes!
Is loved and adored by his big brothers, they maul him regularly. Mom and Dad are pretty head over heels for him too.



Thanks for the great pics Tiff! They were taken in Utah this summer at a train depot. Great place to take pictures and the boys had so much fun climbing all over the trains!
