Fall in the Mound

Fall is here according to the calendar and it actually feels just like fall here in the Mound. We are enjoying the time to play outside with no fear of triple digit temps.

Today G and I ventured out to the park after lunch. That's right people, I said after lunch, not 7:30 in the morning. Since G is walking we aren't limited to just the swings and a few trips down the slide with mom or dad anymore. Although, he does still enjoy a good swing.



He actually goes down the slide by himself. What a big boy!



It seems G, along with every child, has the innate desire to slide down then immediately climb back up.



He wasn't a huge fan of walking on the uneven mulch. After a few steps he kept saying up.



The only bad thing about an afternoon at the park -Unfortunate Slide Static



The shadow of his hair cracks me up! Love this sweet boy and his crazy baby hair!

Shoes in the Dryer

Our little G is all over the place these days practicing his walking skills. This toddler in the house has create quite a few funny finds including shoes in the dryer. We have also found parmesean cheese in the TV stand, a snack bowl on the book shelf and bouncy balls in the sock drawer.



We are absolutely loving this stage and the constant entertainment that he brings. Such an adventure!

From Stepping

to WALKING!
Yup! It's true. My baby walks! G, yes, our sweet G, he walks almost everywhere he goes. See...





Told Ya! Took him 13 1/2 months, but he figured it out. He's pretty darn good at it too. He can even stop to pick up a toy, walk and drink at the same time, and can change directions on a dime.





He can also get into things. Although, this is nothing new.



I figured if he was going to play with them he ought to know how to use them.



He might also need a hair cut, but that is still up for debate.
