Shoes and Swings


What a weekend! It was one of those "to die for" weather weekends- we opened up all the windows- ahhhh so nice! We went back to the park and William could not get enough of it. He's really liking people watching and squealed a few times in the swing. He was in the jonjon I made and not to brag but he looked soooo cute!!!!


William got his first pair of shoes this weekend- some adorable baby Merrell's- He looks like such a little boy in them.... He wasn't too sure about something on his feet, but as the day went on he was into it :-) I think he looks very "big boy" in shoes.


Chad was dressing him Sunday morning and pulled out lots of his "summer" clothes which barely fit now- ugh! I shouldn't have bought so much when I was pregnant! But it was on sale....oh well! He has a huge Spring wardrobe. My friend Ashley picked up an Elvis onesie at Graceland this summer...could it get any cuter? Well it could...he looked better in pants and the onesie- it's a little snug, but this was the only picture I had...you get the idea. William is just becoming such an independent little boy- it's fun to watch!


One of his new favorite things to do is play music with Chad- drums, guitar, keyboard- you name it. I am personally hoping he will favor the mandolin, but for now it's all fun to watch and hear...well except for the drums :-)


I haven't blogged much about his new toybox- but I have been meaning too- I saw the cutest toybox in the Land of Nod catalog and told Chad "I want this" and with Chad being so resourceful he built one that was bigger and better and custom fit to the spot where we were going to put it. I LOVE it. Almost as much as I love our bedroom furniture- he made that too because I got mad at the rude lady at Restoration Hardware- long story- anyway, WDP likes to explore inside the side with the bookshelf and the left side is just a big bin. He grabs the side and peers over the edge. It's cute to see that he knows where the toys are :-) Handy hubbys are the best! Now on to sandbox building!


I have been working on my chocolate piping- I made cupcakes for Christian's 29th surprise party. He was surprised and the cupcakes turned out quite cute if I do say so myself!


We thought we would ignore the time change and gave him bottles at the "normal" time and he adjusted great to that so last night we thought we'd run to Target and on the way home which was early... WDP was singing and babbling in the back and then all of a sudden he was asleep- I mean out cold. His rings were still in his hands, he just passed out. I think that's the sign of a fun weekend when you just pass out from being tired mid-song on a Sunday night :-)
