busy hands - baby edition

...and busy feet, since Elise has been doing everything standing up or walking lately!

 pulling yellow treasures

out of a yellow bag

 

cruising around the house

with the walker wagon

 

cruising around the house

without the walker wagon(!)

Elise absolutely loves this jar of wooden spools

(Sometimes she puts a few back in

rather than just taking them all out!)

helping plant peas in the raised bed

(Elise didn't actually put any seeds in the ground, 

but she was adamant about holding the seed packets!)

exploring a treasure box

full of objects that rattle

a closer look inside 

the treasure box

picnicking along the Yellowstone River

with friends

(The adults ate cheese, watermelon and chocolate.  The babies mostly ate sand!)

Hope you find a patch of sunshine this week - it sure has been rainy around here!

busy hands: baby edition

pulling mama-made magnets

off the fridge

exploring the tails

in Fishy Tails

a family walk 

along the Yellowstone River

investigating 

a selection of spheres

admiring the details

on a souvenir gift from Mexico 

(Our friend who gave up this little dish apologized because there was a piece of velcro on the back.  I laughed and showed her all the photos hanging with velcro on our walls.  We hung the dish up right away, and Elise loved pulling it off.  I haven't kept it up, though, because I'm a little worried about E chewing off the beads... Instead, I'm saving it for special times when we can look at it together!) 

picking up and dropping the agate

from the nature treasure basket

pulling up to a stand

against a chair

Happy Friday, friends!
