It's time to MOVE...!

Kaiden is getting SO mobile! He's been rolling both ways for some time now, but he's now scooting all over the place, pulling himself up, and is VERY close to crawling! He's gets into position, but can't quite figure out how to move his legs. It won't be long, and I'm sure it will be quite interesting trying to keep up with him! It's quite amusing trying to get a clean prefold on him too!

We've had a week of great weather so far, it's been wonderful! It was 81 on Monday, and in the 60s all week. Friday we're supposed to get showers, but then it's nice again. It feels so great to be able to get yard work done. About half the yard is raked up, and we're hopefully doing another burn tonight to get rid of some more brush. Next on the agenda, deciding what we're going to do about planting grass! I'd love to get some plugs, but we may wind up having to do just a section at a time due to the cost. I just want an area where I can feel safe letting Kaiden play on the ground!

Here are a few more recent pics of K. He's already 22 pounds, and he's not even 9 months old yet! Makes me SO glad I have my Mei Tei, I can wear him effortlessly, it feels like nothing!

Almost there!


Mohawk boy!





He *loves* digging in the dirt!



Moo!

Good weather, good friends!

Today was the first truly beautiful day we've had this year. It was sunny out, with just a little breeze, and nice and warm - about 70F! This definitely makes up for the 15+ inches of snow we've had just this month! It's supposed to be just as nice tomorrow, and near 80F on Monday! What a great weekend to clean up after the big storm we had this week! We were without power for two days, but thankfully the basement didn't even get damp, impressive considering we had over 5" of rain!

Considering the nice weather, and the large amount of brush we need to burn from having 5 large pines removed recently, we thought it would be a great chance to have a BBQ and bonfire. We invited a bunch of friends and family, and had a great day of it! Nate manned the grill, we had dogs and burgers of course, and some really good bbq chicken and ribs with homemade bbq sauce. Yum!

We managed to clear some of the brush, and got about half of the yard raked up. All in all, a very productive day, and so much fun! Spending the day with a bunch of friends, with good food and good weather. Can't get better than that!
