Look Out!!!!

Whit is officially getting into EVERYTHING!!!! It seems like each time I turn around, he is pulling up on a low piece of furniture, taking off after Tilly, or grabbing at my car keys, even though he has a "set" of his own. It is amazing watching him discover new things. I always heard parents say that, but I never really understood until I had Whit. One of his current favorite things to do is to have me stack up his blocks and then let him push the stack over. Every time he does it, he starts laughing like crazy and is so proud of himself! The adorable chair Hillary got for him before he was born has now become one of the many things he likes to crawl all over and pull up on. He never actually sits in the chair because he is not a fan of sitting still for long at all! He has also become a babbling machine, so I think he is going to be a big talker, just like his mom and dad! He says "dada" and "ba ba" a lot, and he makes this sound that I like to call the dinosaur roar because I swear, that is exactly what it sounds like to me. When we were at Bree's house on Friday for our weekly play group, Whit crawled up to Michele's 4 month old son, Wills, and did the "roar" right in Wills's face, and he burst into tears! Poor baby!

This past weekend was pretty great. On Saturday, we were planning to take Whit to his first ever GA Tech game so he could embrace his inner Lil Jacket-ness, but alas, he had a runny nose, and our seats were going to be right in the sun. We were also going to be jam packed in, so we decided to take him to a game where we know there will be less attendance, like the upcoming Duke game. That way, we can spread out in the upper deck, hopefully in some shade. Anyway, we watched Tech beat MS State, just as I had predicted they would! We then went shopping at The Forum because it was such a beautiful day, and Whit loves to be walked around in his stroller. On Sunday, while Scott was tutoring, I took Whit over to my parents' house for lunch and to spend the afternoon with them, and we had a great time showing Grammy, Poppy, and Aunt Hilly all of Whit's new tricks. Later, Scott and I took Whit to Sweet Tomatoes for dinner, and the place was chock full of kids! Whit enjoyed looking around and chewing on Daddy's straw, although he hasn't actually learned how to suck anything through the straw just yet.

This week has been really nice. On Monday, Whit and I just lounged around, went to the grocery store to pick up the weekly groceries, and took a walk together to enjoy the sunshine. Yesterday, we went on a journey to find gas because I was almost on empty. I was really scared because all of the stations near us were completely out. Luckily, we were able to fill up at Costco, and then we headed to Whit's Gymboree music class. After class, lunch, and a nap, we went over to Grandma Vasey's house to visit her. She and Grandpa Vasey had been on a 2 week long trip, so we were very happy to see them again! Later on in the afternoon, I took Whit on a walk to the park with Taina and Pippa, and it was so much fun, we decided to take the babies again today. Today is Whit's Play and Learn class, which is his favorite class of the week! He loves playing with all the other kids and experimenting with the different play stations.
