He's almost there!! This month he has started to roll from one spot to another intentionally, scoot around in a circle while sitting or on his belly, getting on all fours with a rocking motion, and most recently, pulling himself onto his knees and even to his feet a couple of times. Thankfully, due to recent overnight guests with walking one year olds, we had to put the gates up. They are in place and ready for use! Sammie gets so excited when she sees him move. She's quite the little cheerleader for him.
We have had a slue of things going on. We are currently in a two or three week slump from having overnight guests at our house. Ever since June 29th until last week, we have had visitors every week. Our next visitors come in two weeks and I am really looking forward to their visit. Heather and Seth Karl are coming for a full week! Yipee!!
These past three weeks have been rather productive with the help of our babysitter! Our wonderful babysitter Stacy started taking Sammie to the library last week. Today I took the kids to the library for "Tales for Tots" time and to see the firefighters. Tomorrow there's a puppet show so Stacy will hopefully be able to take her to that. (I was going to go but I have to get some cleaning done for tomorrow night!) Thanks to the library and my friend Amy, I now have plans for almost every week until preschool starts in SIX weeks!
Right now Matt is on his way home from a three day trip to San Jose, CA. He was supposed to leave San Jose around 12:45pm (3:45 EST) Wednesday but the flight was delayed. Then when he got to Chicago for his layover, the second flight was delayed over an hour due to lightning and heavy storms. I just checked his flight status and he is not due to arrive into Reagan until 1:46am. Poor guy. Lord willing, he'll be able to take some time off tomorrow. Let's pray it's the entire day!!
For myself, I've been mentally preparing to lead our church's weekly playgroup (mommy & me) as well as helping to prepare for a special event at church. Both will happen after school starts but it's better to start now than wait until I'm freaking out about it & should have done it two weeks ago! Know what I mean?
Well, it's almost 1:30am so I off to bed! I'll be up around 6am to my almost 10 mo. old alarm clock!

I think it is so cute the Sammy cheers for her brother. That is precious.
I didn't know that you were going to be heading up mommy-n-me! That is great!! I can't wait until it starts up again.
I want to see crawling when I'm out there!!
