Sleeping...

...with Ruffy :)
Ruffy is the stuffed animal that Justin has slept with ever since he came home from the hospital. We're told it used to be bigger than him ;). I'm hoping that it will be one of those "special" items that stay with him. You know, one of those items for his "special box" when he decides he's too big to sleep with it one day. Anyways, we checked on him one night, to find him sleeping soundly with Ruffy on his head. So very cute.
Speaking of sleep... I thought I had finally finished the roman shade for Justin's room - so that we could take down the blanket that's been hanging there to keep the light out while he naps during the day. But apparently, now that I figured I was a pro at making these curtains (this is my fourth one), I made quite a disaster of it. We went to hang it the other night, and discovered that it was sewn totally crooked. I'm quite disappointed. I'll have to take a bunch of the seams out and try again. Will let you know when I'm finished :).

New Adventure: Swings!

This past weekend, my sister, Rianne came out to meet her new nephew. We had a fun weekend of family time. One sunny afternoon, we took Justin to the park and put him in the swing. It was super fun for him and also for us :)

A little hesitation?

Nah, not really... this is fun!


Even better when I'm sitting forward in the swing!
(Although I think it looks uncomfortable)


I mean WAY better!!


Side-tracked by the shiny bolt...


Some fun with Auntie Rianne
(Yes, Martin had to look twice too - we're actually twins born a few years apart :)
