What a beautiful morning! It was sunny, cool, and just wonderful. Andy and I drank coffee on the deck and enjoyed every minute of it. What a surprising day for August in Missouri.
Sunny Sunday Morning
Sleeping on Mommy
After John woke up from his nap today, he wanted some snuggle time with Mommy. He was still fussing a lot and needed more sleep. I picked him up and took him up to my bed. Uncle Jeremy got John his “Blue” and I snuggled him up. After about 5 minutes, I realized he had fallen back to sleep. He stayed on me that way for about an hour. It was great and I enjoyed every minute. Even as a baby, John never really liked to snuggle and sleep on anyone. Stealing the small moments….
Fun with Magnets
Laura got creative with my smiley face refrigerator magnet and her letter magnets. Love her imagination!
Baby Proofing
See this picture?
This was the “childproof” handle on the door knob to our garage. We took it off today. The only other baby-proof items left in our house are the locks under the kitchen sink. Those will remain for a while because friends bring their kids to our house and I’m sure they would prefer that the kids stay out of there. Our kids don’t need those locks anymore though. That door knob was the last image of “baby” in the house. Funny that a door knob could make me feel sad. A sign that my kids are growing up and much too fast….
Our Son, The Superhero
Our son, the Superhero….is he Batman? Superman? Spiderman? No…..he made up his own “special” Superhero. He’s BUTTMAN! Yes, you read that right. Buttman. What special abilities does Buttman have, you ask? I don’t know. Since John finds it hysterically funny any time he says it, we crack up at him cracking up. At first, I was horrified when he said it. HORRIFIED. Andy laughed more at me being horrified than he did at our son, the Superhero. Andy told me tonight that this is “just the beginning.” Lord help me….I think I’m going to need it! LOL Boys!
Playground Fun
Today, Laura had a play time at her new school on the playground. It was an opportunity to meet some of the other Ridgeway Elementary School families. Laura had a great time and immediately made friends with another little girl named Bethany. She said that she really enjoyed playing and meeting a few of the other kids. She also thought the playground equipment was really “cool!” One week left before school begins……
