We are finally home from our summer Midwest tour. We met our precious niece, Isla Elizabeth Mitchell, saw lots of friends and family, and Shafer learned to crawl! It seems like I left home with a baby, and came home with a little boy! Our house has also become a deathtrap. Despite the numerous toys and books we have, Shafer prefers to go after any item that he will surely poke his eyes out with, or be crushed under. He really loves the independence and mobility of his new walker. Rick and I are developing callouses on our ankles and Peanut is in a constant state of scrambling to safety. Shafer has five teeth, and is a really enthusiastic eater. There is not much he hasn't liked, and Rick and I really enjoy our mealtimes together now. Just today, he got to sample some dumplings and let us know how much he liked them with a big grin. Below, are some pictures from our trip!
