It's exercise time!

   Almost every time we go to my parents' house, we break out the piano. No we don't mean the real piano, we mean the exersaucer-type-thing that has a piano on the floor. (Look at the pictures and you'll know what I mean.)

Mom, I'm a very bald baby!!

   Anywho, Harrison was 4 months old the first time we attempted to use it. Harrison's feet barely reached the ground. We had to stuff a towel behind him to keep him propped up. And he tried to eat the front of the seat the whole time. Needless to say, the toy was very quiet then. He couldn't reach any of the noisy accessories.

I know. A St. Louis bib? And yes, they were feeding me. 

  Last week we went over to see Grandma and Grandpa (and mooch some dinner!). Harrison hasn't played with his piano recently so we thought it was a perfect time to pull it out. Yikes! That boy is tall enough to climb out of it! I mean really, he looked like he could walk right out!

Ah, Mom? I don't think I need the seat part anymore.

   Oh course he can reach all of the toys now. It's amazing how many sounds come out of this thing. (Really what is it? Exersaucer? Walker?) Harrison new favorite thing is pulling off the little purple tray, dropping it on the piano, then bending all the way over to look at it. Nice. It's amazing the whole thing hasn't tipped. (It won't, we tried.)

And there goes the tray... again...

Happy Tuesday!

So close!!

   Harrison is this close to taking his first steps. He can pull up on just about anything. He can stand without holding on to anything. He can cruise around our furniture. But, when he goes to take that step towards us, his legs just give out.

This is my favorite toy to play with while standing!

   When we hold our arms out to him, he laughs and smiles really big as to say, "Are you sure you want me to walk?" Oh well. We're not in any rush, but I am excited to see him start teetering around.

Yes I'm always holding my sippy cup! I can drink while standing too.

Be on the look out for a walking baby!

School's out for summer... almost

   You can tell when it's the end of the school year. The students are antsy, have no focus and can't remember anything to save their life. I can't write on the board clearly, speak coherently or even figure out my plans. Really, we're all breaking down. On top of all of this my poor little blog hasn't had a new post since April 29th (I think). Oops. I've really let myself go.
  However, all of this does mean that summer is almost here and we all know what that means!! Super hot weather? Swim lessons? Sleeping in? Yes to all of that but also...

S.S.A.H.M status!! Summer Stay At Home Mom!! 

This is how I eat soup. Got a problem?

 Really, who wouldn't want to stay at home all summer with this super stud? I can't imagine the adventures we'll have:0)

TEN more days of school!!!
