jj - Way to go with Chase crawling! Welcome back to the working world. I actually love being at work.
MM - Woohoo for pulling up on things. Gabriel is still a lousy sitter. He just refuses to stay put.
GL - Happy 8 months!
vegas - Yay for 1st tooth. We are still waiting on a tooth! Love the photos of Charlotte. She has such a lovely head of hair!
lynn - Good luck with the move.
PH - I had no idea about testicles starting out so high either. I'm glad everything went well with the surgery.
Cocoa - M is not a fat baby! Now, Gabriel, he's a half pint! Still wearing his 0-3 size pants! Such a skinny butt.
No wonder he can't sit and just topples over onto his face.
HC - Nice xmas card. I'm far too lazy to try and do anything so ambitious as actually send out cards. LOL
Kel - Sorry to read about the dog bite, poor Connor.
I hope I didn't miss anyone, but I probably did.
We came back from CA to a bunch of snow and ice. Really the first good snow of the season. We were lucky enough that our flight came in so late it the storm was over and the roads clear. I'm really glad that our Christmas trip is via car. Gabriel loves his car seat and is so good in it that I'm not worried about the short 5 hour drive.
He's definitely cruising now. Moves himself along the coffee table. I really wish he'd learn how to ease himself down though because as of now he only knows how to fall. I've been trying to teach him how to wave the past week and I think he might actually be doing that as well as finally trying to repeat sounds I make. I've been trying to get him to wave and say "Hi, daddy" and he lifts the one arm open palmed and makes a sound very much like "hi, da", so maybe.
We're putting up the tree tomorrow (or maybe tonight depending on how G behaves) and I'm sure both him and the cats will cause trouble.
This cold of his is a pain because it's mucking with his sleep. He wouldn't even let me put him down last night, so I ended up sleeping with him in my arms on the couch in my clothes. I've been co-sleeping with him for the last few days because of him waking sniffling and coughing. It's been the only way for me to get any sleep as well.
He has his 9 month checkup next Thursday, so we'll get to see how much he weighs now. I think he might be just over 16 lbs. Oh yeah, almost forgot, he got to sample so many foods on the trip. He had chicken, ribs, sweet potato, sushi, corn on the cob, spaghetti, pork chops, and pumpkin pie. I may have left something out, but I think the chicken may have been his favorite. His great grandma was feeding him pieces at Thanksgiving while he sat in her lap.

I'm such a bad mom. He crawled off the bed today right onto his face, so now he's got a bruised, red nose on top of having a cold. I thought I had hold of the hole in his sleep sack, but I must have fallen asleep because next thing I know I heard the *thud* as he hit the floor.
OH strokes the cat, then rolls all the hair that comes off into a ball and puts it on his desk, and never takes it to the bin 
So it must have rolled off and M got to it and ate it without me noticing.
Chase was messing around before on the floor and he tipped forward too much and fell on his head, i felt guilty for that too but they are going to have bumps, especially whilst they are learning to walk etc.
I'm so worried about how we can get him back into his cot. He doesn't nap in there in the day either he's never been one to nap in his cot or moses basket just cried when we've tried so he naps when we go out (not ideal at all but not sure how to change this) don't suppose anyone has any tips on getting him back in his cot? He used to love it but i guess he's a bit older now and realises how nice our bed is. 
This morning I fell asleep and woke up to ella right at the end of the bed about to facedive off. Lucky i caught her in time 
And its up high so thats good Ella cant reach it
