Can't keep the boy down!

Derick has now decided that crawling is not so much fun and that he would rather be standing. He is very daring and half the time I have to close my eyes because I am so afraid of him getting hurt. He is way to trusting and then he falls, wines a bit, and gets us and dose it again.
He will use anything to help his stand up. If he gets into the bathroom he uses the tub or toilet. Today he was trying to reach for the toilet water. How gross is that? He will also just use a random wall and then he falls and crashes and gets frustrated.

He is getting so big. It is a lot of fun to watch him grow up.


Derick gets to go on our trip after all!

We are going to France around Christmas time and we have been looking for a bag big enough to stuff Derick in. Well we finely found one so I guess he gets to go with us. I am only kidding. We have been looking for a BIG diaper bag to fit all of his stuff in and I finely found one. We needed something that was going to hold his bottles upright but it also had to be really big because the flights are really long.
When I brought the bag home Russell put Derick in it right away and he loved it. He thought it was great.
We are looking forward to our trip, it should be a lot of fun. We are hoping that Derick dose really good. It is hard to know what to bring and how much to pack and so on. If you have any advise I would love to hear it.
(Thanks for the outfit Lindsey)
