Busy!


 Busy with little milestones everywhere! Doodle has learned how to play catch. The kids love it and he does too. He has also figured out how to get himself to sitting on his own, that makes him happier too.
 I am putting away his 3-6 month clothes. Most of them still fit, there is a brand that seems too short on him. While it is fun to see the "new" clothes and outfits in the 6-9month size, it is a little bitter sweet to be moving. On the other hand, we got a full 5 months out of them and since he's nearly 9.5 months old, he should be in a bigger size.
 "No pictures today" says the little star. Sweetness had gotten a hold of the camera and I found lots of interesting pictures.
 Look at him drinking from a cup. Actually, this is not a new trick, but he is asking for it more and more and doing better and better! Showing off...one handed!
The sink, for maybe another week before he decides to try pulling to standing, is often the best and safest place for him when I'm trying to get things finished up, a meal cooked, or dishes done! Often, he is soaked, most of the time because his big brother helped him turn on the faucet.

Doodle, is also very mobile!


He keeps this army crawl up, my floors won't have a spec of dust or a stray dog hair anywhere! On the other hand, he'll need more baths and his clothes will be (are) filthy!

Other activities keeping us busy include, school -we just started week 4! Gymnastics, dance, and next week music classes begin.

Kman has been participating in a co-op preschool two days a week. I think he is getting into the swing of it now. Doodle gets a good nap, but has a lot to catch up with once his big brother gets home!

 Must be chore time if these two are sleeping.  Big brother still taking care of his baby brother.
My sad sad cucumbers. All of them have looked this way. It looks like one of these things is my problem, or maybe all of them are: 1. Not enough sunlight. I do not think this is the problem, but maybe they're not getting as much as I think they are. 2. Over watering. Well, maybe this is a problem, very likely this could be the problem. 3. Not getting pollinated. This can cause weird shapes and apparently coloring. Seems this could be a culprit as well.   They should not be eaten. Girls said, they taste like hand sanitizer.

May you have a blessed week filled with milestones, big and small!
