I GOT IT!!!!

Jace is a walking dynamo! He is so excited to be upright whether he is holding our finger or going on his own, he is just so proud. However his very favorite way to walk is with his latest treasure... i.e. His wooden spoon, or my shoes... perhaps the tissue box. But today was my favorite He had the laundry basket. It is nearly as tall as he is and a bit awkward but some how he managed and boy was he happy.

two quick to catch

Right now there have been have been so many cute moments as Jace perfects his walking and climbing skills that I just haven't been able to get them on film. There was the time Mike had his leg up on the coffee table and instead of Jace bending slightly to get under Mikes leg, Jace insists on crawling over. He had to stand on his tippy toes and the hurl himself over Mikes leg. The whole thing was pretty funny. He really seems to enjoy landing on his head. Heaven help me I think I have a dare devil on my hands!!!

Spring Has Sprung!

Weeks fly by and seasons change and spring is my second favorite time of year ( my first being summer), But Spring-o-Spring, Flowers bloom and the air smells sweet and I can finally go barefoot again without chancing frostbite, O what a glorious time!
We are all getting better here, It seems that the plague has finally past and we all have a bit more bounce in our step... or maybe it is frostbite?! Anyway, Jace is getting so big. He is trying to walk on his own, unfortunately he has his mothers balance so it might take him a while. Fortunately he has his fathers determination so that will take him far! Lately he has spent many hours in his car seat and as a result has learned to keep himself entertained... He blows bubbles...for 45 minutes sometimes. Here is a sampling of his work(its very quite):

Proof

I offer this up as proof for the previous post.

Bobbing for Cheerios

Things in our house have been insane this last month we were all sick and finding time has been impossible.

The weather here has been beautiful so I got to pull weeds and Jace wanted to help. He even decided to help eliminate some bark... BY EATING IT! I thought I got it all out of his mouth, then I realized that he was sucking on something. He squirrelled it away in his cheek while I swept his mouth then pulled it down and tried to eat it. But he had fun playing in the dirt. This is the day that he graduated to Little Boyhood.

He also has gotten very good at feeding himself. He can hold his own sippy cup and can grab bananas and put them in his mouth, however there are time when he gets creative and decides that his hands are obsolete, So whether it be sippy cup or cheerios he bends down and tries to get it with only his mouth, like he's bobbing for cheerios.
