Sitting Pretty....er...Handsome!

Ian has recently started to sit on his own! One of his favorite toys right now is one from Auntie Sara that has a mirror with lights and shapes of instruments that when you press them, the lights turn on, little people pop up and songs play. I have to say, it's quite fun!
Here is Ian sitting all by himself playing the instruments!Here the toy is playing the "If You're Happy and You Know It" song; Ian's not sure he likes it...

Ian's love for Charlie is growing every day. Charlie would probably never admit it, but she loves him to. She stays very close to Ian. Right before I snapped this photo, Charlie was resting her head on him while he played! She's such a great cat. When she walks into the room, Ian smiles, giggles and has started to reach for her! Amazingly, she usually goes to him and allows him to "pet" her. We are working on being gentle with Kitty Charlie.

Here Ian is watching Charlie...the reason for the smile!This smile is all for Mama...and Charlie!
Ian is also getting very close to begin crawling. He gets up on all fours and then he's not quite sure what to do from there. I have been strategically placing toys in front of him, so now he moves his hand forward to reach the toy and then goes back onto his stomach.
Ian now has two teeth and luckily he hasn't been having trouble! I'm so thankful for this "teething break". It's so difficult as a parent to know your baby is in pain! In this photo you can see his two bottom teeth...
Ian has also slept through the entire night for the last 3 nights! Yay!! We hope Ian keeps it up!

We also moved into our house two weeks ago! We are still working on getting everything unpacked, but we love our house and look forward to being settled for quite a while! On the next blog, I'll include photos of our house.
