someone has also been watching momma sew

I walked in to the dining room this morning to find this:

someone has been watching daddy play

Water Fountain Fun

back to yoga

Remember this post? Well - he still does it. . . .

Our favorite place to eat

Much like the Rayners, we will miss Santi's when we leave Charleston.
You will find us there usually at least once a week. You will find us there with friends. You will find us running into other people we know. You will find us with chips, salsa and pitchers of margaritas.
You will find Joseph doing the following:

Our silly boy

Milestone for Momma

She finally spent a night away from Joseph . . . and survived. Thank you to my amazing husband for a wonderful weekend "away" and 4 great years of marriage.

boxes

because every little boy needs a box to lean on sometimes. . . .

playtime is so fun!

too tired to finish his cookie

It's been 4 days

since someone last asked for their "ginky" when they went to bed. Are we pacifier free at last?!

Sail Away

Yesterday we were invited to go sailing with our friend Cam for his birthday. We had a truly wonderful time and were reminded again of how much we'll miss our friends, Charleston and the ocean when we have to leave . . . .Cooper River Bridge

Joseph's Chair

I made Joseph this little chair this week and he loves having furniture that is just his size.

C . . . is for Cookie!

After about the millionth time that Joseph has signed "please" to me and me saying "Joseph, please use your words and tell Momma what you want" which is usually followed by more "please" signing and whining . . . . yesterday, he turned that sweet face up towards me and said "COOKIE!"

Today I am making cookies.

Joseph's bassinette

Friends borrowed Joseph's bassinette for their new baby and recently returned it. Before taking it to our storage unit (a.k.a. Linnea's attic) I thought it would be fun to take a picture of Joseph in it and compare to when he was born. I think he has grown . . . . . ??
I love this "Joseph humoring Momma" expression . . .

Joseph's Valentine

Sweet Laurel is back in town! We've missed her (and her parents) while she was on vacation. Isn't she a cutie?!

Talking to Nana & Papa

Joseph loves to chat on the phone. Here he is talking to Nana & Papa on Saturday morning. In the middle of the conversation he brought me his cup for a refill. All that talking really makes you thirsty!
