But what's he doing here?

I can't quite tell ...
Can you see it better here?
Sawyer is starting to walk!

Sawyer has been taking a step here and there for a couple of weeks. Mostly one step between the sofa and the ottoman, and a lot of leaning. This past Wednesday he added a few more steps. About five or six steps to be exact. He's on the go, guys. Look out!!

(He was ten months on July 25th. All of my babies were early walkers. Taylor walked at 8 1/2 months. The latest any of my babies have walked is 10 1/2 months. I was starting to get worried about Sawyer. lol)

8 1/2 months??? That sounds like a nightmare to me! LOL I needed some time to "prepare" for the walking. (Get things a bit more childproofed. If it had happened that soon I would have been in a bad place!)

Woo hoo, Sawyer! What a big boy! No more sitting around for you, Lera. Ha! As if you ever do.

Thanks so much for the package you sent me. You are too sweet. That was sooo not necessary, but I love the fabric. :)

OMG. When did he? I mean, is he really? Is that possible? HE'S JUST A BABY STILL! Seriously. The time. So fast.

Although, bonus here is that he will have an online baby book from before he was born.

Baby of the Internet Age fo sho.

Reusable Swiffer WetJet Cloths

Image
I promised myself that, when I bought a box of Swiffer WetJet refills at the wholesale club, it would be the last box I bought. Something had to be done. Now, to be honest, part of the reason was to help the environment, but the other part was because I was tired of running out of those darn things. I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away. You will have a clean floor and have saved one more thing from ending up in the landfill. Now, if I can just do something about the cleaning liquid ... Something environmentally-friendly, economical, and won't cause further pain to my arthritic back.

39

It's that time of year again. The one that seems to come faster and closer every year. Yes, today I am 39. (That means I'm almost 40! Aaaahh!) To keep in tradition with years' past , I decided to do a list of things you might not know about me . (My best friend loves these posts, so this is in honor of her. You know who you are.) I ran 1 3/4 miles this morning. I gained 3-4 pounds after Sawyer weaned himself this year. Since starting to run, Joe has said that my thighs are "as tight as when we were first married." I didn't realize my thighs weren't tight. Hmmm. I guess six kids can do that to you. I need a new mattress. We bought our last mattress when I was in labor with Carter . That was ten years ago. We also bought a set of bunk beds that day. I want a new sofa. Actually two new sofas. I'm waiting until Sawyer is potty-trained. I'm planning on training him as soon as school lets out in June. Sometimes I plan ahead. Sometimes I procrasti
