A thousand words

The recent lack of posts is because I left my camera at my parent’s house last weekend. Fortunately Stacie is visiting tomorrow and will deliver it safely back into my hands.

It has been sorely missed.

 

I just went to check on Lance and found him sitting in the middle of a pile of Kleenex, happily pulling more from the box (they just keep on coming you know). Now he is screeching in delight as he shreds them and redistributes the particles all over the house. Even as I write, a glance over my shoulders spies a naked little boy running by.

<pause>

Caught and properly clothed, Lance continues his quest to grace each room with white tissue.

Mommy’s brain works slightly faster than her little boy’s busy hands. The bathroom is eliminated. Lance contents himself with reenacting a blizzard on Ivy’s play mat.

Apparently you don’t have to have teenagers to get a t.p. job on your house.

Siblings

These two kiddos like to do everything together.

If Ivy needs to go, Lance needs to go.

They both love to perform:

Ivy is starting to “talk”

And Lance has learned his body parts .

Oftentimes I can get them to nap together.

And if one doesn’t want to play, it’s a sad, sad, day.

I think Ivy is worried about her figure already. Yesterday she started doing sit-ups!

I’ve seen kids lift their heads up when they’re tummy side down, but this is something new to me.

How does your garden grow

For all of you who got a laugh out of my first post about our garden, you should know that it’s doing much better now.

The cucumber vine is winding down the railing and I’ve harvested a few bell peppers.

The flowers lend a cheery look to our balcony.

It may not be as grand as ones I’ve had in the past, but I do my best with what I have. I really enjoy my little garden

Walk with a little boy

Yesterday we took a walk to find a rain puddle.

On the way he met a friendly cat, found a blue bottle cap,

checked out the air conditioners and said hi to the maintenance man.

We finally found some puddles left from the mornings downpour.

On our way back there was an incline and Lance had to practice a little….

looks like the skill still needs some work.

He ended the walk on a happy note however with a warm chocolate chip cookie from the office.
