hanging around

We got to visit our friends, the Morozovs, this week. Little Val, who is almost 3, and Lewis had a good time playing. Val was a little frustrated that Lewis mostly liked chewing on his blocks, but he was a very gracious host! We are awaiting the arrival of Val's little sister in November. He's ready to be a big brother. We missed his dad due to work. :(

















Then, we got a visit from some old friends, formerly Amy and Emily Wilson. Amy (now Betts) is visiting her sister Emily (now Pierce) in Glasgow. Amy's hanging around in the area until her first niece is born later this month. Darla (Johnson) Oglesby also stopped in with her son, Liam, 9 months, to see the girls. Their visit overlapped with our regular weekly play group, so it was a full house!

Here is a photo of the reunited alumnae from L: Darla, Liam, Shelley, Emily (Lily in the belly) and Amy.


















After that it was back to me and Lewis. He ran around with a monkey on his back for a while on Thursday evening. He's in no hurry to part with this walker aid, though Justin is talking about taking it away in a week or so to encourage him to be more independent. We'll keep you posted on that one!






















Here are a couple other pics of Lewis being his cute self:

oh...Daddy...let him keep it :0)

My boys had those silly walkers FOREVER and I don't think they hurt anything. Sam and Gabe didn't walk until 15 months and Ethan (because of his club foot) didn't walk until 17 months. (Their late walking was genetic, I didn't walk until 15 months either) Lewis is way ahead of them! The walker is fun and it's building up his strength!

Wish I could have been at your house for the mini Crusade reunion!
