The last few weeks I have been racking my brain, along with Laura's to try and figure out some inexpensive ways to help Karis play by herself. Karis loves for us to play with her, and she is very much lacking in the imagination department, I am sure she gets that from both her parents! I bought some felt and felt pieces and cut out some shapes and things for her to have her own felt board. She loves playing with the one at the library and her Sunday school teacher uses one every week. Karis is very proud of it and loves to play with it! Thank you Laura!
Okay, so the bear is a little bit too BIG for the house, as you can see I am not a professional cutter especially without good cutting scissors, which I now have!
Noah is officially walking all the time as of a week ago. He no longer crawls unless he is really tired or mad. He will be just be ten months on Thursday and continues to move too fast for his mommy! He is all boy, climbing on everything, pushing toys on the floor like trucks, and never sitting still for longer than a few seconds. What a difference from his sister. He is so fun and happy, what a blessing both of these little people are in my life.
Noah climbing up the bathroom cabinet. He enjoys being naked after his bath, thankfully he hasn't gone to the bathroom on any of us or the floor.
Classic Noah! Smiling, mouth open, and holding onto whatever he can find.

WOW! I can't belive he is walking. My best friends daughter was walking that early and we all said is was crazy to see such a little baby walking. HA! Trust me if he is anything like her than he will always be more advanced than others his age. He is such a cutie!
Noah is so cute! Let me know how the forced-imagination play time goes. I need to do that with Andrew. He will not play with any of his toys unless Kyle and I play with him, too. We are enforcing a "toy time" in his room for 20 minutes each day--but some days you'd think we were torturing him with the way he cries and throws fits over having to play with his toys by himself in his room! He just loves people and wants to always be playing with someone.
Great idea...the felt board! Noah is such a cutie...and I can obviously relate to the "all boy" sentiments! We are a house full of them and loving (nearly) every minute of it! :)
yea for felt! it's pretty cheap and easy to replace when children decide to "taste/chew" it. the felt board looks great. i think the bear is the perfect size for mauling the house. ok, too violent, i know. the picture of noah is great. i laughed and laughed. you need to frame that for the kids' bathroom. it's classic and will totally embarass him when he's older. love you.
Noah looks like a lot of work! ha! He's going to be climbing trees before long!
