random pictures

I've been busy making my blog into a book now that the first year is over. I want to save some of these posts and pictures into a more permanent form. So, that's why I haven't been very post-ey lately.

Here are some updates, though:
Jake is pulling up onto his feet and makes funny grunting noises like he's about to turn into the Incredible Hulk Baby or something. He loves trucks and wheels (what is up with that and boys?)

Eddie is taking a few steps! But then he decides that it's faster to crawl. He's also got a lovely new habit of shoving anyone in the face who's in his way. And he climbs on the couch and thinks he's king of the mountain.

Mary Beth claps, waves bye-bye, and shakes her head "no". It's really cute!

Let's go, mom! We want to see the world!
