Around The House

2009 is off to a good start. So far I spend a lot of time just hanging out around the house.

My latest game is to hide on Mommy and Daddy. Can you find me?

Another favorite are bubbles!

We finally finished the breakfast nook. Mommy just has to finish making the cushions.

Stop taking photos Mommy, i'm having breakfast in the Nook!
