8 down

Cullen is now a whopping 8 months old. It seems as though he's less of a baby and more a little person. Cullen is very active, but a good little guy. As you can see, one of his favorite activities is standing - standing anywhere. We think he may be walking soon. Watch out world!

Dirk and I went to the Badger/Gopher game in Madison last weekend with Drew and Annie. The Gophers let us down again, but Dirk had a big grin at the end of the game.

Standing and Babbling

The World's Gone Mad



Well, the World is spinning out of control. Financial markets are crashing, the Badgers and Gophers have somehow traded their historical spots in the Big Ten standings...ugh!, and most importantly Cullen is growing crazy fast. Showing the Swanson genes are in full effect he has begun crawling forward and now is able to pull himself up (with a little help) on furniture and stand. Its nuts. This kid is a freak. Nothing he does anymore surprises us. He babbles constantly, a trait he must have inherited from his Mom, is always quick with a smile, and has grown quite fond of using his iron grip on Camp's fur. We are having a blast with parenthood and as always are excited to see what lies ahead....at this rate I'm hoping he'll be able to man the snowblower this winter.

P.S. Enjoy it my Gopher brethren

P.S.S. I guess the LaVigne genes might be playing a role in Cullen's above mentioned feats.
