My little chef

I love our kitchen. We recently purchased a new kitchen for the kids playroom and I love it! What surprised me the most was how much D likes it. I knew A, B and C would like it (at least I was pretty sure). Often times when I go searching for her she is in front of the kitchen playing with the knobs or opening up the play refrigerator.

Monkey'n Around

I co-hosted a baby shower at my house on Saturday that was monkey theme. We had a lot of fun.

Here is a picture of the cake.

And the cupcakes! I love how you can create the expressions.

Who Said Cleaning Isn't Fun?

Ahhhh, I have fond memories of this as a child. Being placed in front of a table with shaving cream and my bare hands - it was glorious. Who said that cleaning up isn't fun??

A loving it!

B getting ready to practice her letters and handwriting!

It took C a little longer to get the idea but once he did he loved it!
You mean you want me to make a mess?? Sort of son.

Teamwork to make the whole table white.

This is where D was hanging out the whole time :)

D's new record

She stumbles along a little more each day! The current record is 28 steps! I think it helps to have a cheerleading squad :)

Twelve Steps

No, this is not a program - although that would be kind of funny. D has taken her first steps - twelve to be exact. On Wedensday, she stood up and went (to Daddy of course). Currently D would rather crawl to Mommy and walk to Daddy :) At what point do you call a baby a walker? I remember with A it started with two steps, then four, then seven - I think we were in the thirties before we stopped counting and declared her walking. B and C didn't do the whole step thing though. When they were ready they just got up and walked and that was that. B was 13 months and C was 8 months. These are exciting times!!

D in all her glory!
