“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain 163.366 Little Baby, how you've grown! Already holding your head up so strong and happy to sit in the bumbo for the first time. -Apr 29, 2016 The next day we documented the bumbo feat. You have to suck on your fist and sometimes your thumbs. Then you noticed your sweet, chubby feet, entranced. Of course, Big Sister was jealous and wanted to try out the bumbo too, which got a good fit of giggles. 164.366 We read "Time for a Hug" (my favorite because I get lots of great hugs) and "Giraffes Can't Dance" (Here you are pretending to be an elephant). Then we played "Mr. Bear, Mr. Bear, Are You Awake?", had a tickle fight, and learned how to shake our hair wildly, which is your new favorite because of your amazing bouncy curls which have gotten so long.

I've always wanted to participate in a blog circle, so I happily jumped on board when I was asked by Share Six to participate in their July Blog Circle with the theme of {kitchen}. My kitchen is one of my least favorite rooms in the house because it's itty bitty...get more than 2 people in there, and you're definitely in someone's way. But I spend a lot of time in there, not just getting an endless supply of snacks for my little one or preparing meals for my family or washing that mountain of dishes, but also because I know that it has some of the best morning light ever. This is also the room where my daughter begs me to dance with her as I cook breakfast or where a lot of conversations happen with my husband as we try to talk in between taking care of the kiddos. It's a bit difficult to photograph in such a tiny space, but that light is too hard to pass up. Once you've scrolled to the bottom, make sure to click the link to hop over to Sharleen's six kitchen images and follow the circle around where each photographer shares 6 kitchen images! Eek!! I love blog circles! Participating in this is as if I was asked to participate in a flash mob...dream come true! ;) Now head on over to Sharleen's blog to see more awesome kitchen goodness!
"And at the end of the day, your feet should be dirty, your hair messy and your eyes sparkling." -Shanti 155.366 Daddy was hard at work in the evening sunlight, so we took advantage of the dwindling rays to explore the yard, visit with the goats, and then Daddy tried to teach you how to climb a redbud tree (you were too afraid, which is fine with me!) and drove you to the mailbox in the wheelbarrow. Then you two sat beneath the weeping cherry in peaceful silence. |
