Into EVERYTHING!

Sawyer is into EVERYTHING these days - and I LOVE it!!! I follow him around constantly while he explores. It is so fun to see how interested and intrigued he is in the world around him. Good thing I put locks on the cupboards!

Oh - he heard me sneaking up behind him...

Ah, there were some giggles, right before he discovered the toilet paper roll around the corner (so much for the locks!).

Oh, the joys of having a mobile baby! He is so proud of himself as he stands up and scoots around getting into things. I guess it comes with his adventurous territory, (he is, afterall, named after the mighty and mischievous Tom Sawyer - how can he help it?). These days Sawyer is usually sporting a bruise or two from toppling over or being overly confident in his motor abilities. Tonight, for example, we were at our neighbor's home eating dinner when all of a sudden we look over and he has climbed up a make-shift ladder and looked like he was in gear to climb his own Mt. Everest. Jacob caught him just as he turned to hear us gasping and let go). He climbs, scoots, crawls, cruises, tugs, topples, and keeps on trying (mostly, successfully) to get into...EVERYTHING! We love our boy - 100%!

I really liked the into-everything-phase too. Everyone said I'd regret it when he was mobile but I never have. Independence is a good thing, even though it means a lot more work for the mommy.

What fun, fun pictures. I just can picture him and his little mischief! How fun for mommy!

It's amazing how fast they become mobile. I know he's already 3/4 of a year old, but to this never-been-a-mother woman, that just seems so soon to be so, well-EVERYWHERE! :)He's definitely going to keep you on your toes!

Oh, and I love his stockings - very very cute!
