In case you were wondering
If you ever wondered what it would be like if you let a two-and-a-half year-old dress himself, you might get a result like this:

Daddy Dressed Me
I once thought that Tom had a better sense of style than I do. Now I am not so sure. Here are some samples of some of the outfits he has put Talmage in recently....
Bike Fun
I have been meaning to post about this for a while now....
We are a biking family. 5 years ago, I would have never guessed that I enjoyed biking. In fact, I really did not like it at all. Then, I met Tom, who seemed to bike everywhere he went. Then we moved to Portland, where biking is sort of the thing to do. Tom biked to school nearly every day while we were in Portland, but I did not have a bike, so my biking was minimal. Then one day, we happened upon a bike at a Garage Sale for a really good deal, so we got it. Thus beginning the Biking Era of my life.
We put a little Co-Pilot on the back of my bike, and we would go out for family bike rides all the time, and Owen and I would cruse around Portland running little errands. I even biked to the bank 9 months pregnant.
Anyway, now that we have 2 little monkeys, it was rather hard for all of us to go out for a ride, with just the Co-pilot. So we started looking into Biker Trailors. After a bit or research we decided to get a Chariot, because they are awesome. They are the ultimate Kiddie carrier; Jogger, Biker trailer, Skiing carrage, and a couple of other thing. Plus they have supuer high safery ratings.
Anywho, I decided to get a used one, because, well, it is much cheeper that way. And we LOVE it!!! Owen and Talmage love riding together. Tom and I love that we can go out for rides. And I love that I can take it out running. All and all, I think that it was the best purchace of the summer.

So Smart
Babies amaze me. I am always
so surprised at how much they understand. Tal is only 10 months old, but I swear that he is comprehension is super advanced.

One of Talmage's favorite things to do is to climb all over me if I am lying down. Today, the boys were playing in their bedroom playing, so I lied down on the floor to stretch. Tom calls, "Talmage, come get Mommy!"
Next thing I hear is this shriek of elation, and Tal comes tearing down the hall as fast as his little arms and legs will carry him, and tackles me just as I am starting to sit up.
What a funny little guy. I did not realize that he understood language that well yet. What can I say, I a have a brilliant child.

My new blog
I decided to keep a blog of my sewing projects. I have been trying to do a bit of seamstress work, so I am kind of hoping this blog will not only be a good way to show some of the things I have made to my friends, but it can sort of act as a portfolio of sorts. So take a look and let me know what you think.
It is still a work in progress, so I have not posted a ton of projects, but it is still fun. If any of you can think of something that I have made that is not on my blog, please remind me of it.
here is the link:

If only it were so easy
I must admit, I love the way kid's brains work sometimes. Today Owen was sitting on the toilet, trying to do his business, when he says, "Mama, its not coming. I need help. You push down on my head."
What cleaver thinking. If only everything was that simple and intuitive.
