Fall is finally here!

And it's only mid-November. What a year! With the fall temperatures finally here, we've been doing a lot of prjoects inside the house. One thing we'll be doing soon is painting Gwydion's bedroom. I've made new curtains for his windows and will be painting to match the wonderfully bright colors of the jungle animals on the fabric. I can't wait to get started!

Gwydion is doing well, aside from some sleep issues. He's recently decided he doesn't want to sleep alone, so we have about 30 minutes of crying to get through a few nights a week. He's very slowly started talking more. His most recent words are 'girl' and 'train'. He still does everything on his own schedule though- if he doesn't want to identify something, he won't. He has been asking the names of everything under the sun lately, so maybe it won't be long before we have a real talker. No matter how many times you ask. Stubborn child (I wonder where he gets that?). By my measurements, he's 23 lbs and 31 1/2 inches tall.

Here are a few recent pics:

Gwydion loves the new car!


Who needs expensive toys when a laundry basket is so much fun?

Or cat toys for that matter......


Grandpa brought us a sandbox. Gwydion has never had so much fun!
