He walks!

Richard actually took his first steps several months ago, but has refused to walk all this time. We have been waiting and waiting for him to take the plunge and last week he finally did!
He's started getting very brave and actually walking more than he crawls. These milestones are so bittersweet. I just love the "drunk Frankenstein" baby steps, though. I will miss them (next week) when he is running around chasing his sister with sticks.


Sorry for my lame video commentary. Am I ever going to learn?

Richard the Builder

We've been working day and night on some major yard and deck projects, and Richard wants to be just like his daddy!
These pictures are just too cute not to post.

Shirley Jean appears on Sasha Malena's blog today.

The Ottoman Empire: Conquered

So, I bought one of those ottomans that you can use to store stuff. It's been a lifesaver as a toybox. I can't believe it took Shirley Jean this long to figure out how to get inside of it...

As you can see by the background...she had to empty the ottoman before she could get in.

In.

Ready to get out.

Mama, I'm stu-u-u-u-uck!

High-centered.

Out!
