Around Here

Well we sort of missed the 8month mark, now that he is almost 9months, but Russell is doing really well, crawling all over the place, and I am loving it! It is so fun to have him play with me! We have a bigger box now, that I can crawl through too, and we just go back and forth all day. His main goals in life at this point are to get to something (does not matter what) and stand up. He is always standing and loves to pretend that he can walk. He takes adventures dives away from furniture, but needs a bit more practice.

We got our carpets cleaned last week, they were really nasty. When we moved in to this rental the carpets looked really really bad and so I borrowed a cleaner from a friend and did it myself, I spent quite literally weeks going from room to room cleaning and then back again. But when you do it yourself it the stains just come back when any dirt touches them.
Now that Russell is crawling all over the place we decided that we needed to break down and get the floors cleaned. Now we can't believe that we waited to do it for so long. We had the Austins from the ward do it for us, and they did an amazing job
