With the weather getting colder, day care asked that we bring a hat for James to use to go outside. We had to try them on to find one that fit his melon and the green one w/ the froggy won :-)

Monday was waaaay too windy and cold for a walk -- there were +40mph winds and tornado warnings (yuckies). So I bundled James E up on Tuesday and we took Easton on a nice long walk to burn off some energy.

James tried out his high chair for the first time on Friday night. It leans back, so it made it easy to feed him since he's still not so steady while sitting up (they have a "respect" policy at day care where they don't put children in positions for them, which is great but I think it also doesn't let them develop the muscular strength to do certain things). He tried peas for the first time -- which I thought would be bad, but he was a big fan :-) He got some homemade squash, too - yummy yummy.

Saturday James crawled into the kitchen from the family room while I was doing the dishes. Jim got his camera out and started shooting because, as you can see, James (aka Trouble) definitely has Easton's bowls in his sight.Maybe Mommy won't notice if I just slip this ceramic bowl away from her feet to play with it?
Ah, I've got it! Now what?

Now I will stick my hand in to feel the sliminess of Easton's bowl (they are disgusting, even after washing them numerous times - dog slobber is gross). Good thing Easton demolishes his food in less then a minute from when we put it down or James would be feasting on dog food himself!

This thing is too heavy to hold up while I sit, so I think I'll play while laying down -- it makes cool noises when I let it fall back on the ground :-D

Easton and James found something interesting to watch in the kitchen -- when will one of them start doing the dishes? I can't wait for that day (I think it was me they were looking at -- they are more than welcome to join in the dish washing fun anytime)!
