The following took place in a 3 minute span the other day...Multiply this times however much you need to in order to get a full day (I was never good at math, not going to try now) & you can see why I am exhausted by 7am.
I heard him yelling and banging around on his crib, so I got him out. He started standing a few weeks ago, so Brandon lowered it basically to the ground hoping it would deter him. Alas. We have spent a few evenings staring at the video monitor watching him stand, sit, growl & try to climb out. It provides great entertainment. But seriously, when will he be able to climb out? It's all fun & games now, but that is a terrifying thought. 
Somebody is pretty proud of himself.
I brought him into the bathroom while I finished getting dressed & he managed to open the cabinet, pull the organizer thing out and start chomping on some makeup. This was while I was in the closet for about 5 seconds.
While I cleaned that up, he crawled toward the shower and climbed in! I couldn't get a face shot because he was busy focusing on his next move. I had to take his onesie off since the shower was wet.
Then I decided to put the dishes up, so I brought him in there. This happened while I was standing there! I was putting a plate up! Was that even 3 minutes? Maybe 90 seconds?
On a related note, the above loot is what I managed to grab in about 3 minutes at a consignment sale I went to with Clare. For $23 I hit the jackpot, I think. (The pink vanity is for Lily-it was $2!)

Anderson is adorable! As for his shenanigans, I think this is just being mom to a boy. I stepped away for a minute and mine managed to find and cover himself in Sharpie marker! Yay. :)
ReplyDeleteThank god he is not Baby Sophia. There better be a college scholarship in the works somewhere. Love the vanity!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh he does move fast. Keeps you skinny, ha.
ReplyDeleteLove the hair... brandon did a good job.
I think this post should be shared with anyone who thinks being a stay-at-home mom (even for the summer!) is a cake walk. When do you get time to do anything?! I do love his hair in the first picture - very stylish :)he's so darn cute!
