Cruisin'
Oh, it's been soooo long since a new post... I've been running around after my newly mobile little Termite. He can now not only crawl, but also pull up and cruise along furniture and even stand for several seconds all on his own.
This means that he's got a lot more ways to be busy, but he also has no intention of being trapped in a high chair, carseat, play pen or crib for a moment longer than he feels like it.
It also means that he's not going to bed until he's completely exhausted...we tried keeping bedtime constant, but he was just exhausting himself by being upset. So, at least for now, while he's still trying things out, we've let him decide when bedtime is. (As soon as he shows the tiniest bit of tired, we start the bedtime routine.) It's still within the normal range of the bedtime we'd chosen, but there's a lot less fighting and a lot more sleeping.
On other fronts, there is a lot of organizing and preparation going on. I finally cleaned out a ton of boxes that hadn't been opened from the move a year and half ago, and put the items at least in the right rooms. Now, I have to go back and find places for them to really "go." In addition, we're making room for my very good friend Amy to have some space when she arrives here in a few weeks to stay while she sorts out finding a job and an apartment in the Big City.
Finally, I'm starting to get things together for all of the committees I'm on for church...I have several projects that need attending to, as the events are drawing near. With that said, I am off to bed to get some much needed sleep.

Wow Laura! He's still so adorable! Looks like he's keeping you busy... though having friends in town probably helps with that too! :) Hope y'all are well!
