Out for some exercise.

Wes is starting to walking along the couches and tables. Sometimes he lets go and stands for a couple of seconds before falling over. And he's figures out how to crawl faster. He tries to beat you to the gate when it's open.

Cuddling in front of the tv on a Sunday night. Wes even crawled over when he saw the rest of us on the couch.

Wesie's first haircut.

Mommy's little helper.

Poor Wes is teething. He's been waking up the last few nights. He got up twice tonight. Luckily the bottle trick still works and he only needed a couple of ounces each time to go back to sleep. I'm going to try giving him Tylenol before bed and hopefully that will help him sleep through the night. I hope his first tooth breaks through quickly.

Kitchen reno done! And it looks great! It's come a long way over the last three years.

We bought the new sink and Ray is tearing up the last counter. Hopefully everything will be grouted by tonight and then back to normal operation by the middle of the week.

Halfway there. Just need grout then these three areas will be done.

Starting on counter #2

Ray put the backer board on and we tried out different arrangements with the tiles and decided we weren't wowed. So tile shopping tomorrow.

It's done! Just kidding. First layer.

Starting on new kitchen counter top remodel. We decided to get rid of the ugly laminate and do modern tile. Eventually we'll redo the kitchen and put in granite and maybe new cabinets but this will hold us for a long time. Oh and I finally get a deeper sink!

Evan's recreation of Monet's sailboat painting.

First dinner on the new stove.

Yay!! New stainless steel stove and microwave! And both have multiple cooking areas.

Yay, got everything planted. We're trying a few new things this year, onions, radish, zucchini pickling cucumbers, and Brussels sprouts. I may have crowded the garden.

Grace and I worked hard this afternoon. We were able to completely empty one bed and put weed barrier in the bottom and plant it with new veggies. Hopefully it's warm enough to make the seeds happy so they start growing. And then over the next week we'll be able to clean up the second one and put out the veggie plants we have waiting in my office.

Wesie has figured out how to crawl on his hands and knees but he still prefers the soldier crawl. He is pulling up on the fire place repeatedly and even taking a few steps along it.

Trying Wes out in a big boy car seat.

Who's a big boy!

Now that he's more mobile Wes is exploring his surroundings.

Wes just pushed himself up into a sitting position. He's been working on that for the last week. He was close the last couple of days.

Wes pulled up again. He almost got to a standing position this time! Grace was so amazed she told Ev Wes was so amazing. I guess he's going to skip proper crawling for now.

One last thing. Ray bought me a tardis grab bag. Five out of the eight items where Doctor Who related. Among the best; a sonic screw driver, a tardis wallet, and tardis jewelry box. Isn't he a great husband! He said I shouldn't go home without souvenirs.

Last pic. I already put this up but this one turned out better. No funny faces.

A few fellow cosplayers.

David tenant panel. Afterwards I got his autograph and when I came over he said "Well hello you!!" He asked me about my costume and if it was homemade. And when I told him I did. He said "We'll it's fantastic!" I also had a ton of people complementing my costume and wanting to take pictures with me. It was an awesome day.

Ray and I sat in on the Hillywood Panel!
