monday at the madhouse // ten months old

This week our guy was crawling like crazy, playing ball with us and feeding himself all kinds of foods like waffles, raisins, cheese, prosciutto and his new favorite, PICKLES! We had an awesome weekend full of time with good friends, delicious food and long walks around the neighborhood. There was also an amazing thunderstorm that took down trees and power all over the place. Luckily, we kept our power, but the neighborhood had some serious cleanup to do (as you'll see...). Ezra got to play with his buddy Eero's *amazing* toy collection on Saturday, including this giant, helium balloon. Yeah. This was a hit.As were the Sunday morning waffles that he fed himself (and Magda).After waffles, we took a walk around the neighborhood -- check out this downed tree. You can barely see the red car trapped underneath.And apparently being pushed around the 'hood in a soft breeze is exhausting.Later, we had lunch with Nyberg, and the boys played with their tongues. As you do.And this kid might end up as a drummer. He loves banging crap against tables. This was his "drum solo" with his sippy cup on the high chair today. Love his rock'n'roll face. Startin' him early. And there's my sweet, sweet girl who's stellar behavior just blows me away week after week. Holy crap, does she melt my heart.
