So Jason and I and Kaleb headed for Knoxville last weekend. The plan was to spend friday night w/ Jason's sister and then leave Kman with his cousin and head for the Biltmore for our first night away from Kaleb...well, we didnt get very far b/c i got a virus and was feeling quite miserable...so instead we spent the weekend watching Kaleb and Nylah play, which wasnt too bad after all. We just didnt get to have our adult weekend as planned...oh well, that seems to be the norm in parenthood...nothing ever goes as plans and you just have to roll with it...

However, today we took Kaleb out on the boat for the second time and it did go much better. The life jacket seemed to fit him much better and he like to watch some of the kids that were playing nearby. In the pool he's pretty recklace. He was diving into the water to chase after the floating toys...pretty funny...at least he's not scared of the water.

And he's off...

Well, last weekend Kaleb moved from his stomach to a sitting position while Jason's parents were in town. We were so excited. After that he started doing it all the time. If he starts crying in the middle of the night, we'll go in his room and he is sitting up. I think it's his new favorite position. He looks like an owl, sitting up half asleep.

So this weekend he started taking 2-3 crawl steps at a time and we figured it wouldn't be long. He has been army crawling for a couple weeks now and getting up on his knees and rocking, but then falling flat on his face b/c he didnt realize he needed to move his arms too. But tonight, he crawled across the room using his arms and legs. We spent the whole rest of the night putting things of interest across the room so he would go get them. I never though that this could be so entertaining!
