Yes...I know this post is pathetically overdue. What can I say...I've been busy, um, chasing children and watching Mocha Jomby on Nick Kids. And playing in leaves and camping and reading other people's blogs. Finally though...I am posting on my own blog and updating my sweet little Sawyer's monthly pictures. Our little pumpkin pie is 10 months old (almost 11...forgive me) and growing like a weed. He can walk. Really walk. A couple of days ago he walked, stopped to pick up a toy and then kept walking. That's huge. He didn't even fall down. He can walk, turn, and then come back. He's super skilled and highly advanced. : ) He's actually on pretty much the exact same development track that Hudson was on. Sawyer kisses, bites (ouch!), follows Hudson around, tries his darndest to get around the back of the tv to play with the cords despite our sad sad attempts at childproofing that area and is now trying to tell us things...sort of. He mimicks our talking...that counts right? We have discovered that Sawyer does not (this is a huge surprise) enjoy camping in freezing temperatures, he doesn't like to see books on shelves so must must must remove them as quickly as possible, he doesn't adjust well to Daylight Savings time (thanks for that farmers of the world) and he loves anyone and everyone who might, maybe, want to hold him. Also, he's very very stinky right now so I must go.

Our last catch up...

catching up part two
Catching up...as always
Sawyer is 9 months old!
This month I told Jordan he had the honor of trying to snap a 9 month picture of Sawyer. Despite Sawyer flipping and crawling and pulling up onto everything, Jordan somehow managed to get him on his back to continue the progression of monthly pictures.
We just had Sawyer's 9 month appt. on Oct. 29th so I have some official stats for the first time in a while. Sawyer is 18lbs 5oz and is 28 inches long. Although it seems like he's been the same weight forever he has actually gained about 2 lbs in the last two months. His two front teeth on the top just popped through and it looks like a third top one is trying to see the light as well.
His new favorite foods are grilled cheese and Dunkin Donuts hashbrowns, although he has also eaten white beans (which he likes!?!), salmon, strawberries (shhh don't tell), and a whole bunch of other random stuff.
Sawyer babbles a lot like he's having a conversation, but mostly sticks to the basics: dadadada, mamamam, babababa. The pediatrician he saw loved him and said he was very social and in perfect health- who could ask for anything more.
We just moved Sawyer into Hudson's old crib and he is sleeping in the same room as Hudson now. The last two nights have gone well so maybe we have a room to ourselves and a guest room too- Keep your fingers crossed!
Sawyer's latest and greatest favorites: drinking out of a straw, being tickled, eating sand (yeah, good fun), taking a few steps between Jordan and I or thinking he can really walk and just letting go of the couch to try to walk to something, ripping magazines, flirting with women at the Commissary, pulling books out of our bookshelf... yeah, he's a mischievous one just like his brother!

Sawyer is 8 months old!
Our sweet little Sawyer is EIGHT months old! His favorite activities include trying to get on his feet by any means possible (whether it is by pulling himself up, getting someone to hold his hands so he can stand or just being in his walker or jumper), growling, making wookie noises, sucking his thumb, splashing in the pool and laughing at Hudson. His least favorite activities include crying over his teething, aching mouth (poor baby!), riding in the car and laying flat on his back- it's a wonder I was able to snap his 8 month photo before he turned over and army crawled away. Sawyer is a master army crawler and I'm interested to see if he ever makes it to a "traditional" crawl before he actually walks since Hudson went straight from army crawling to walking. Nothing is safe in the Branem house now that we have two boys that can get around on their own!
