Enjoying mom's glasses

Just for fun, and as a typical kids picture, I deicded to put my sunglasses on J. He thought it was pretty cool, even if he didn't leave them on for long.

in mom's fabric.

I got out some fabric for a project, and J decided it was a great place to sit. 

climbing

in fact, trying to climb over the side of the couch....

Park blanket snuggles

J has been super cute recently, and has gotten really excited whenever he sees the park blanket come out. today, he even gave it snuggles while we were out today :)

Black toes

This picture doesn't show it very well, but J's toes and knees have gotten quite black with all the crawling around our complex he likes to do. 

Practicing walking

He's actually getting pretty good too

foods

I got frustrated at trying to figure out something to feed J, so I came up with a list. now, I just need to find things to put in the "foods to try" category...

looking cute

getting ALL the blankets

J LOVES to cuddles (quite vigorously) blankets. This is him, contemplating which one he wants to pounce on next :)

sideways picture

we were supposed to go to the ward campout tonight, but between J not sleeping and Drew not feeling so great, we decided not to go. so, I blew up the air mattress, and Drew and I "camped out" in the living room. J was excited to crawl around on the air mattress when he got up in the morning, and had a lot of fun with it. 

looking at flowers

we went on a walk around campus today to look at flowers. this one was one of my favorites. 

Swinging boy

In the swing

A few weeks back, we dug out our baby swing to loan to some neighbors while they decided if they wanted to invest in a swing of their own. we got it back today, and decided to see if J would still like it since we basically haven't used it since he stopped sleeping in it. he was a bit uncertain of it at first, but seemed to enjoy himself later on. 

finding dinner

We came home from taking Drew some dinner. J never eats well away from home, so I needed to find something for him to eat. While I was finding him some food, he helped himself to all my recipes. 

day at the park

we went to the park to get out of the house for a while.  J's favorite activity there, besides watching me blow bubbles and trying to drink the bubble solution was to push the stroller around. he pushed it for a good 15 minutes before I came over and pointed out that the swings were finally open.

Cool Blue Jars

I made some jam yesterday, and posted about the cool blue jars on Facebook. someone wanted to see, so here is the picture taken. unfortunately, the only picture taken today.
