A little Catch-Up…

I’ve had a bunch of blog ideas in my head, but time keeps going on and I don’t seem to get any of them written, so instead I’ll give you a conglomerate of all that’s been going on.

I finished up Joshua’s backpack and it is Oh-So-Cute!  I wasn’t sure I liked it at first.  I purposely put the head on at an angle so it looked like it was peering over his shoulder, but when I finished it just looked like it was sloppy and I couldn’t get the head on straight.  But it’s grown on me and I’m okay with it now.

 

I put a zipper in it so I can store a few things in it if we’re only going out for a bit

Heidi and Ovidu were here for a week and we had all sorts of adventures: the zoo, hiking to Donut Falls… I’m glad we got to spend time together before they headed home.

While everyone else hiked up the falls, Joshua and I threw rocks in the stream.  He had a blast!

My little squirt is very much into being independent and exploring and climbing.  He can now successfully get up onto kitchen chairs.  He thinks he’s such a big boy.

He put on his own hat so he could go outside to play.

He helps me out around the house, and he’s actually pretty good at sweeping.
