Seth's Cross-stitch

I had been working on a cross-stitch for Seth since before he was born and I finally got it done, framed, and hung on the wall this weekend!! I am ever so happy it is done and think it turned out pretty good. Here are some pictures, though I'm not sure you'll be able to read all the words.

Nice way to sleep

Here is a picture from today of Seth taking one of his naps. He loves to play with blankets before he falls asleep, and so they end up in all sorts of positions once he is asleep. This one was so cute I had to capture it on the camera.

Here, kitty, kitty!

Well, Seth has really started to notice our cat, Twilight lately. Whenever she comes in his line of view he just gets really excited and makes all sorts of happy sounds. Today, she came very close to him (probably b/c Jason was close by too) and Seth reached out and grabbed her. It is so cute to see Seth look at Twilight and get so excited. I may have quite the job getting Seth to pet her instead of pulling her fur. Twilight doesn't seem to mind so much and has not scratched Seth yet, for which we are glad!

This is a soft thing to touch! I tried to not have Seth grab Twilight's fur and pull, but that didn't always work...

Pictures from today

I decided to get some pictures today just for fun. So, here they are.

This blanket has lots of sentimental value. Seth loves it because the colors are so bright. Today he just reached for it and looked at it so intently, it was pretty cool. It's also pretty soft, so that is an added bonus!

I pulled out this "new" old toy for Seth. It doesn't work as well as I'm sure it did when it was new, but it works nevertheless.

Lately, Seth has taken to rolling over when he's in his crib awake with nothing else to do. He usually does this without too much noise so you don't always know what position you'll find him in when you go to get him. This smile was just so priceless. He is way at the end of his crib and this is the way I found him after one of his naps today. He usually finds a way to get the totally opposite way in his crib as when I put him in. He is also figuring out that when he kicks against the sides of the crib that makes noises he likes, so he has done this quite a bit recently. Sometimes he even falls asleep this way.

Leaves!!

Seth had a lot of fun playing in the leaves Jason raked today. I had alot of fun getting pictures. He wasn't quite sure at first what this all was, but once he knew they were harmless he really got into it. I'm sure we'll find remnants later when he takes his bath even though we tried to get all the leaves off of him and keep them outside!

Hmmm, I'm not too sure of this...

Let me have that!

New toy!

Seth now has a new toy that is bigger than his other toys. There are these four animals that are all very colorful but they are bigger and have wheels on them. They come in this really neat wagon which I didn't get a shot of, but it's pretty cool. Seth was wondering how best to play with them so he was really getting into it. Here are the pictures...













He was very happy for something new to play with, even though this picture doesn't really reflect that! I think those animals are so cute! Makes me wish I was a little kid again...

Playing with dad

The other day, Jason and Seth were playing on the floor. It was so cute how Seth was looking so intently into Jason's face and playing with it I had to take some pictures. It's kind of cool to pull your hair, dad!!
