Flake Fun

 

What an eventful month it has been! The highlights:

James is crawling like a champ and worked his way through the scoot (still his favorite mode of transportation), army crawl and has finally mastered the normal crawl! He is also starting to walk around furniture.  I remember being concerned when Rand started to climb. James has already put Rand's climbing to shame!  He loves to climb the stairs and has required last second rescues when he tries his hand at climbing off of the couch arm and back.  Climbing onto the couch poses no problem to him.

Robin and Rand are chattering away and love to repeat anything that they hear. They had quite an enjoyable time at Grandma and Grandpa's house picking berries, going on walks and swinging on the swing.  They are still talking about the tiny snake we saw on our walk there and about the owl in the backyard.  They were also quite enthralled with the large gopher snake in our backyard.  I'm sure I am exaggerating but I'm pretty sure it was 6-7 feet long! 

Our garden struggles along. We have had a few good tomatoes, a small harvest of potatoes, some large zucchini and loads of cherry tomatoes.  Hopefully next year we'll have a better garden. 

The neighbor's house has started and it going up really quickly.  Scott has spent a couple of Saturdays helping them.  The other day Rand told me that he was building a house. I asked him what kind of house and he answered, "a neighbor's house!"

Well, I hope that you all have a great week!! Love you all.
