Well we were all excited for Everett to start crawling. Ryan would put him on his tummy and say, "Crawl Baby"
Everett is now crawling and he is trouble. Rawley crawled a lot and got into to some things, but never like Everett. Everett has a sixth sense about things, it is like he knows everything he cannot do and wants to do it.
He hates organization. If I put his books on the shelf he will crawl across the room just to rip them down. If I line his cars in a row he will crawl over just to mess them up. He doesn't stay to play with them he simply comes to unarrange them. Anything we stack he will knock over. If Ryan lines up the mini hockey sticks side by side on the floor Everett will have to move them. If his toys are in the toy box, it must be dumped out. He will rip all the diapers out of the shelf just to have them thrown all over the room.
At the doctors office he ripped the paper protector off the table, then in to a million tiny pieces and then he tried to eat them all.
He has found the hole where the tv & internet cables come out of the floor and gets his finger down the tiny hole to rip out the underlay. Then he proceeds to eat it. He will run his hands over the couch to find every lint ball or stray hair so he can eat it. He loves to dump over the garbage in the kitchen and pull open the drawers. He finds Rawley's dropped crumbs in the dining room and rips the cords from the computer. Oh and his new favorite thing is to crawl to the tv, pull himself up and them smack it so hard that it creates white bursts on the screen. Daddy really hates this new habit.
The funniest thing is that he will do all these things then look at us with the biggest smile ever. Either he is just proud of himself, or he knows he is being naughty.
Because our house is all split levels we need 2 baby gates if we are on either one of the main levels. This is a hassle because Rawley cannot get over them and only knows how to open one. It would not be so bad if he remained in one spot for more than 10 minutes, but this is Rawley we are talking about. I spend most of my day opening the baby gate for him.
On the plus side, Everett is much happier now that he can get around and entertain himself.
Look what I can do mommy.
At the doctors, can you see the grimace on his face?
"Trouble? Who me?"
At least he has good taste.

Sharing a baba with Daddy
No matter how much trouble he gets into, No matter what he has spilt or knocked over, no matter how much snot or milk is on my clothes....... At the end of the night he is still my little angel.
