Church. Alex recently got a new calling - Elders' Quorum First Counselor. He was a bit overwhelmed at first, but thinks he'll enjoy it once he gets his bearings. For the time being I'm still teaching in Young Women's, but have also received a new calling. I'll let you know when it's official.
Baby Robert. Pretty sure our little guy is teething. He's been very fussy and gnaws on everything in sight. His favorite "chew toy" is his Dad's knuckle. Whatever works. He's continuing to grow and probably weighs nearly 20 pounds now. He's started figuring out how to use his hands better. His latest trick is to pull his pacifier out of his mouth and deliberately drop it on the ground. Then he waits for Mom or Dad to give it back so he can do it again. We've recently started giving him rice cereal with different fruits and veggies mixed in and it's going very well. Bananas seem to be his favorite, but he's willing to eat whatever we give him. If only I didn't have to deal with the aftermath - super nasty.
Blog. This thing has suffered greatly since Robert was born. I apologize. I'm hoping to get back with it soon. It's just kind of hard to feel blog-tastic when I'm so tired.
In the meantime, here are some pics my Mom and Amber took during a recent visit.
Robert meeting his cousins (for the second time)...
Robert and Edward having a changing party..
"Baby"...
My Mom made us take a family pic. If I were PhotoShop savvy I'd do some doctoring... at very least, I wish I would've tucked my belly into my jeans.

Oh, man. His new trick with his pacifier sounds like loads of fun. I had a toddler in my pre-school teaching days who would something like that, except instead he would throw his blankie across the room at naptime, and wait for us to retrieve it.... so one day, I just didn't retrieve it. He was rather irritated.
We believe and still do believe in the 5 second rule!!! Or before the dog gets it which ever happens first! sounds like Robert needs some paci leashes!
