These are some of the words that come to mind during my days with Cap. A week ago, we came across dirt. Ahhhh...dirt. We are all about getting dirty outside at my house. O' how he examined it right and left and up and down, right hand, left hand, both hands at the same time. Taste test..check. He loved it. And I loved watching him check it all out. I look forward to the messes we will get in.

We are doing good here. Bryce takes off on an overnighter out in the woods tomorrow. Just him and his thoughts and of course a fishing pole. Glad he's going out. I know he will have a great time.

I think I am taking Christmas stuff down early this year. I am just itching to de-clutter and hit this to-do list that I made today. It will take a month to complete it, so must get started soon.

I am starting to think about making a few changes around here with myself and with our family. I am copying a phrase I like from another blogger whom you can find here http://stardustshoes.blogspot.com/ and calling it Intentional Self Care. I don't know exactly what all needs changing, but I am thinking about it. I will keep you updated.

Okay. On to this cute little guy and his exploration of our backyard.




notice the dirt around the mouth

this was day 2. notice the left leg that is off the ground.
when he is standing barefoot on the grass, he only lets
his right foot be on the ground. it tickles his feet i think!
eating some wild onion! yumm!
