Crawling machine

Cole is a crawling machine. He just learned to crawl 1 1/2 weeks ago and already he wants to be down and moving. He had learned to shut doors and he can also pull up on furniture. (Sunday he shut the door to his room and Chad couldn't get in to get him dressed. Cole was sitting right in front of the door.) He is still pretty wobbly, but he can cruise a few steps too. With these new skills sleeping has been more of a challenge. We lowered the crib and have to put the rail up. Now that he can pull up he just fights going to sleep or he won't go back to sleep when he's had a short nap. So, we've been having lots of short naps and been getting up a little earlier in the morning too. He also gives louder cries when he's put down to sleep. I think he just wants to be out playing with us instead. I hope he gets back to being a good sleeper soon.

He also eats a ton. That second kid gets the food much quicker- we were only giving Makaila Cheerios to go with her baby food and he eats mango, maccaroni, pears, canned beans, zuccini, bread, cheese, whatever is around and seems soft!
