A Little More Freedom

We have made a decision to make the next step to being on our own. We have eliminated the morning shift. Rob is on second shift right now and we have been doing it alone this week. It has been surprisingly normal. The days are progressing the same as they always were. We couldn't have made it without all the wonderful help we have had to this point. We want everyone who helped to know they are welcome any time. The kids are more independent and getting into things. This morning Ethan pulled our video camera off the coffee table onto him. He wasn't too happy about that. Landon is moving in full blast these days. He is a new kid. You can see it in his eyes. He isn't in pain anymore. He is happy and he shows it on his face all the time now. They are constantly doing something to amaze us. Landon got into the presents yesterday. That was the first time anyone has attempted that. Ethan and Peyton are wiggle worms in bed at night. You can see it in the picture how much Ethan rolls and moves at night. We are in full blown teeth cutting right now. Peyton has his two bottom front teeth. Ethan has one bottom tooth and is working vigorously to get the second through. Landon is in the exact same boat as Ethan. Sydney doesn't have any yet, but I have a feeling she will get both bottom ones really close together. Jenna is still bringing in the rear with no teeth and not really any signs of them. She still is known for her funny faces as you can see below. They were all weighed on the 3rd of December. Ethan weighed in at exactly 20lbs. Peyton was next at 16lbs even. Landon is barely holding onto third at 15lbs 6oz. Syd is right on his tail weighing 15lbs 4oz. Jenna like always is the tiny one at 12lbs 13oz with her diaper and sleeper on. She is eating really well, but she is also very active. The doctor is okay with that for now. I can't believe that they will be 10 months old on Saturday the 15th. Everyone is growing and progressing like they should. I can't wait for Christmas.
