Our Farmhouse Bed

We finally had a chance to stain our bed that we built Labor day weekend. Still have the polyurethane to put on, that is the goal for tomorrow. We got the plans from http://ana-white.com/


16 Months




  • He finally started drinking milk this month. 
  • He has said Oh no, uh oh.
  • One Wednesday after service at church, I got him up from his nap and he was still tired and as we were in the rocking chair at church, someone opened the fridge. He perked up and said Oh, so clearly because he saw something he wanted inside. 
  • His favorite thing to do is empty and fill up things. Especially a drawer within his reach.
  • He pointed to his mouth once when we were singing a song.
  • He got his first haircut with the clippers.
  • He is also in the process of cutting his top 2 canines.

Getting his hair cut like daddy


He got a treat after the haircut was finished. He did well until he was ready to get down!
