oh, so much this week!

We visited with grandma and grandpa!

LP lost his mobile today! It was attached to the inside of his crib and he loves watching it, well, now that he is standing, he is starting to grab it and pull...he might just break it!

So, i thought I could attach it to the outside, so he still gets the music and can see it....but, he really just reached over and grabbed the animals..therefore, he lost the whole thing...it is now in the basement packed away for baby #2!

Our little gardener!!!loves bushes, flowers plants, grass!!!
