I'm A Big Kid Now!


Look at my sweet Ian, sitting up like a big boy! This is one of his newest accomplishments. You may recall in a previous blog I mentioned that he was getting close to crawling. Well, he's still close, but he's found another method of getting around...rolling. He doesn't let the lack of crawling/scooting knowledge get him down; nope, he just rolls to what he wants! He's quick and speedy too. Brian and I have both noticed that he can get across a room without us ever noticing him move. I think the baby-proofing will be more difficult this time, since Zach loves to leave small items wherever he feels like it.

Tidbits

Wow! It's been a while since I've been on here, huh?!? It's been a busy couple of weeks! I am working a lot of overtime this month, so this week I worked over 50 hours (plus 8-9 hours in the car commuting). One of our managers had an appropriate quote displayed this week: "Every year it takes less time to cross the Atlantic and more time to drive to work!" How true!

Let's see, what's new in Buckley-land?

Well, for starters Ian is getting really close to crawling. I was starting to think he would be one of those babies who would bypass crawling altogether and go straight to walking since he hasn't even really been scooting; but yesterday out of the blue he started scooting himself around the room & pushing up into the crawling position. He can't move and hold his mid-section up at the same time yet, but he is soooooo close! I need to get the video camera out and capture this!

Zach is getting smarter and more grown-up by the minute. He has some really diverse interests, such as Superman, Spiderman, The Wiggles, Baby Einstein, Elmo, Pee Wee Herman, KISS, Weird Al, puppies, Jimi Hendrix, Shrek, Monsters Inc, Star Wars, Happy Feet, dinosaurs, Nemo....the list could go on and on and on. But those of you who know Brian well can probably tell which ones he's played a part in turning Zach on to!

Last night I was driving with the boys and out of nowhere Zach said "Church?" I'm assuming it might be because we were driving in the general direction of our church, but we were miles away. Then he follows it up with "Weird Al?" Now he seems to have somehow combined the two, because today he has been saying "Church Weird Al?"Not sure where that combo comes from but it's an interesting thought! :)

Not much else new to write about. I'll try to be better about keeping this updated!

Buckley. Out. (Did all you American Idol fans catch that Ryan Seacrest reference?) :)
