Family Pictures!

ugh.

Crue has had an ear infection for 2 weeks!  He was on an antibiotic last week but it didn't help so when I took him to the dr on Friday we started a different kind to see if that will clear it up.  If it doesn't then we have to go to an ear/nose/throat dr. who will put tubes in his ears.  I know he'll end up getting tubes.  I'm just not sure if we will put them in before winter or in the spring.  Crue is getting his first tooth too! I can feel it and when he allows me to I can  kind of see it (although this is a huge ordeal because he screams like I'm torturing him when I try to take a good look at it).  You would think he would be a nightmare with all of this going on, he's been really good!  He doesn't really cry he just wants to be rocked and cuddled.  I'm actually liking this since he is not a snuggler at all.  He's also started giving us kisses!! This is my favorite thing in the world.  Even though it's a little disgusting since they are open mouth and slobbery I take them whenever he wants to give them!  We also learned that he likes Taylor Swift.  My ringtone is Mine and when it started ringing the other day he just started shaking his head back and forth.  Of course then we played the song about 5 million times cuz it was the cutest thing! We actually got video of it so I'll try to upload it.  He's pulling himself up on everything, including this cute little toy we bought him that actually helps him walk around the house without us having to help him.  I love being in the kitchen and seeing that handsome little boy walk in looking so proud of himself.  With his new found mobility he's been such a better kid! He'll play by himself now and I'm LOVING that! I can't believe he is going to be 9 months next week!  I think he's favorite thing right now is his puppies.  He will not leave them alone.  When they rampage through the house and bark like crazy he thinks it is the funniest thing!  I've never heard him laugh so hard!  Mike and I are having so much fun with him.  Crue's constantly laughing and smiling and I wish he could just stay at this stage forever.

We went on a girls trip to Vegas to attend my cousins baby shower.  One morning we got up and walked around the mall.  Poor little Crue looked was so tired!
