On The Move!!!

James had a busy day at daycare Friday. They went outside to play for awhile and as the bigger, more mobile kids were crawling/walking around, James spent the whole time kicking and pushing a big ball. His teacher said he couldn't get enough -- guess it's time to bust out the athletic equipment at home :-) Thursday night James started a mini-crawl action -- it's somewhere between an army crawl and an actual full-on crawl...add that to his quick power roll and this little boy is ON THE MOVE! I think his favorite color is orange because he is always trying to move to get his orange blocks -- both the soft and hard ones -- with the red ones being a close second option if orange are too far away.

Daddy makes a good pillow when needed.

Mommy, what is this camera thing all about? Can I teethe on it? No? Then it is of no use to me!

James totally made out w/ some new clothes and toys this weekend. Our neighbors were having a garage sale and they have 2 boys (score) and there was a re-sale sale, which was basically a huge rumage sale in the community that Kathleen (Katie's mom) and I went to on Saturday. Both Katie and James got some new clothes and toys to enjoy. Katie also lent James some more boy-looking onesies that she had and the cutest pair of shoes (seen below)...the best part is a) they are Illini and Bear colors and b) the ties are fake, the shoe Velcros along the side (which took us about 3 minutes to figure out). Thanks Katie, they're great!
