Simple Days

You are 15 1/2 months old. We are enjoying the simple things in life and soaking in the joy that this stage in our life brings. You are very active and intelligent, Maybe every mother thinks this, but you love to figure out what a tool does, or where a key fits, or how something is put together and it usually does not take you long to figure it out!

Your latest favorite past time is exploring the inside of cars. We turn you loose in the car with a set of keys and you go exploring all the buttons, latches, levers and of course where the keys fit! You know which key fits in my car, which key fits Papa's car and Grandma's car!

Chris is playing softball in a men's league and you and I go to watch his games every Monday night. We play in the grass by the field and watch Pap play. We have made friends with the 18 mth boy who is there watching his Paps. You two play in the dirt, take balls away from each other and then give them back and share snacks!

This week we bought you a bunk bed! It is bright blue and has a futon couch that pulls out into a bed on the bottom of the bunk. You are not quite ready to leave your crib yet, but soon. When you really want out of your crib you have started throwing a leg over the rail and can get 3/4 of your body over the railing! Soon you will be tumbling to the floor and we will have to switch you to the futon. I think it will be years of fun!

Life is simple, yet busy! and we are enjoying all the blessings God is bringing our way.

I love you,
Mama
