Hellooo Gorgeous! We're cruising now!

Over the last week, Mason began "cruising" along the furniture. We are so happy about this, as it is another step in his progress toward walking!! Mason used to just plop back down on his butt and scoot over to the other side of the coffee table to get what he wants. But he is now using those dancing feet and is so proud of himself for doing it! The toy is a McDonald's freebee and he just loves the way it says.... "Helllooo Gorgeous!" Enjoy!

Owen's masterpiece!

Owen is always drawing and coloring on his magnadoodle. Usually he draws cars, lots and lots of cars. Sometimes he draws people, usually just their face with the arms and legs coming out of the face. But today Owen told me he was drawing something "special" and he would show it to me when it was done. He worked and worked and I was curious to see what kind of car he was drawing. But, it wasn't a car... it was a boat. And Owen was standing on the boat ... and he had a body. And the arms and legs came out of the body, not his head! And there was a sun and water and dolphins. WOW! A real landscape. Such a milestone. And I love that I thought to grab my camera to memorialize Owen's first masterpiece ...
