River's crawl

At exactly 6 month (last week) River started doing this crawl/scoot/jump thing to get around. He's actually getting pretty good at it. It's really hard to catch him doing it, as soon as I bring the camera out to film him, he stops but I did catch him for a bit. Beware, he's a crabby monster - desperately needing a nap.

River's 1st Christmas

and what an adventure it was! We flew to North Carolina on Dec 17 and stayed for 2 days with our good friends the Bradley's. We got to meet their sweet new addition, Selah, who is just 4 days younger than River. They are already talking marriage!

Next we rented a car and drove 2 hourseast to Raleigh where we got to hang with more good friends the Hensinger's. They also have a new addition, little Seth, who is just 3 weeks younger than Riv. They are already talking traveling the world together-that's before him and Selah wed. (yes, River is a planner)

Then we drove 8 hours north to my parents' home in Harrisburg PA where we stayed for a few days and then drove north again to Bloomsburg, to visit for a few days with Seth's family. Then back down to H-burg for a few days. Whew. I think we counted 6 diferent beds that we stayed in. I don't think River took a nap in the same bed twice. He was a real trooper. We actually think he liked meeting all these new faces. He was a very happy and pleasant baby. Oh how I love him!
