Obsessive crafting and other happenings


Since Nathan has been away studying, we have been very busy! Aside from the regular diaper changes, naps, feedings, baths, and the like, we have been doing so much! H is now a pro at rolling from tummy to back and from back to tummy. He will often spend ten or so minutes just flopping back and forth. He still has trouble with an arm that gets stuck on occasion. He is also getting better at getting his toes into his mouth - he could find his feet before, but now loves to nibble on them (I do too!). He smiles more at strangers that smile at him.
Play time!


Scaling around the cradle, about to get stuck in the corner


In his own room!

Another big thing - he now is sleeping in his own room at night! He had gotten to where he would use his feet to scale around his cradle in our bedroom and would end up stuck in the corner with no where to go! He has more room to move now - and, we also just switched his wardrobe to 6-9 months (he is growing too fast!!!).


Other things we have been doing:



Making baby food:
Lentil, peach
Cauliflower, apple, sweet potato
(H will start eating food at 6 months)


Made an apron for Mama/SweetHart

A matching tea tote


A reusable lunch bag for Karen/AK/ my sister

Making and sewing buttons on pacifier clips
(A baby can never have too many!)

Making soft balls out of scrap fabric
(I didn't realize how easy these are to make!!!
They remind me of little roosters with their ribbons sticking up)



Other family members have been stealing blankets to sleep on...
We try to keep H's things fur free,
but someone forgot to put up the blanket before Leonard found it!
