SUMMER FUN!!

So, Landen is now a week away from being 7 months old!!  It's so crazy how fast time flies!  Landen is absolutely nuts!  He is always on the move, he never stops moving.  Squirming, crawling, pulling up on furniture.  He wants to walk sooo bad, he can hardly stand it.  I would not be surprised if he were walking by the end of the summer.  Matt and I are enjoying the extra time we have with him and each other now that we are both out of school.  We are looking forward to going to the lake with the family in a couple of weeks and have enjoyed visiting with friends and family here in Asheville.

Landen watching Ella catch bubbles!

One of Landen's favorite things to do is to watch the dogs do anything!  Yesterday, he got a big kick out of watching Ella catch bubbles...I love this video!

6 months old

Tornado Taylor....that is our new nickname for Landen.  Everywhere he goes, it looks like a tornado has come through.  
Once again, we are amazed at how fast Landen is growing and changing.  He can get anywhere he needs to go...and fast!  He can now sit up on his own and has even pulled up on one of our chairs by himself once.  He and Daddy are having lots of fun together during the day (I have one more week of work and I'll be hanging out too!)  They've been going to the pool, running errands, playing with the chicken and the dogs (he LOVES the dogs), and other very manly things!  Here are some new pics...

5 Months old!

Landen is growing up so fast!  It's hard to believe he is almost 6 months old!  He is getting so big and we love to watch him continuously learning and exploring new things.  He is moving all over.....squirming while you are holding him and "crawling" around.

Bouncing around..


 Sweet boy!

He loves his Ella!!

Hiked up to pick some lettuce, getting ready to head back down.

Eating...I love eating!

And eating...

 And eating!

And taking baths!

And of course, watching Ella do anything!

Being 5 months old is FUN!!

Landen's first beach trip!!!

For Spring Break this year we went to Edisto Beach with the Edwards and the Alexanders.  It was awesome!! Great weather, great friends!  Landen wasn't always sure about the water (it was very cold), but he did love playing in the sand (well...eating it)!  Looking forward to many more beach trips (when our kid sleeps through the night!) Ha!

 The older kids playing on the beach, looks like they buried Sofi!
