Someone's found a new place where he's just tall enough to see out the window.
I'm sure he wanted to be on the other side, but his favorite was to make faces at Ivan and later Daddy as he came home from work!
On Silas' special day, he chose the game we would be playing. And he picked one of his favorites. As you can see, he's working very hard at it.
Meanwhile, this little one was working very hard at crawling, and he figured it out!! He's still been a tentative crawler this week, but he's getting around. Our slick hardwood floors present a little bit of a challenge for a new crawler.
On Thursday, we were going to meet up with friends for lunch, but when our plans got changed, we improvised! We headed to a closer park and had it all to ourselves.
Conrad and I hung out on the blanket most of the time and the boys ran around playing.
Later, the youngest three got in some high flying on the swings.
One of my favorite scenes. Some days they play so nice together. Others don't go as smoothly. This week, Amos has been going off and doing some things a little more independently. It's presented a chance for Silas and Ivan to figure out how to play together. There's always more conflict between the two of them, but they did make some strides this past week.
More examples of his new skills. The cabinets are always a favorite.
On Saturday, we busted out some Christmas gifts that take a little more time and thinking. Amos was working on circuits and Silas with magnets. They sure are little thinkers. And Ivan was around just in case things needed a little messing up.
Amos' special day was Sunday. He and Dad went to the park all by themselves and then picked up ice cream!
Monday brought an outing for our newly formed nature group. We had fun, despite the wind, looking for rocks and marching along.
What a joy to share God's Great Outdoors with friends!
