Weekend update

We are having a wonderful weekend with Daddy home all three days with us. Adam was able to get Saturday off and had Sunday and Monday as him normal off days this week. Yesterday we ran some errands up in Appleton as our car had to go into service for a broken axle joint, what a fluke issue. We were driving along on Tuesday on the way back from lunch, Adam said the car was making a funny noise. I thought it was a flat tire, but turned out to be the axle joint. So luckily Adam's parents were out an could help him get a ride back from the dealer. We got a rental and then picked up the fixed car on Saturday.

Since we were up in Appleton we stopped in at the mall to shop for some navy shirts. We are having a family picture taken with my side of the family. Adam found a nice shirt and sweater at Eddie Bauer and then through in some guide gloves (you never know when you might be leading an expedition to Everest) at the last minute. The total was way higher than I was expecting so after I paid I asked Adam how much the gloves cost, he didn't look at the price, he just guessed about $40 and thought he would use them to snow blow. Well they were $120! Needless to say they will be going back.

William is getting faster with his crawling, but he is still army crawling with his belly down. He is enjoying this new found freedom to check out furniture and toys all over the living room. He has graduated into the big tub for baths and is having a good time playing with all his toys that now fit in there. I will have to allow a little more time for play than I used to in our bedtime ritual.

Will's top two teeth have broken the gum line. The way I knew for sure was he is grinding and clicking them together, I hope that is just a reaction to the new sensation as that sound is not a pleasant one, nor do I want him messing up his little teeth.

Will didn't get a good afternoon nap yesterday due to the timing at the mall so we took an afternoon walk and he fell sound asleep. Too cute so I had to snap some pictures. He looks like my baby when he is sleeping, but awake his is my little boy. I can't believe how fast he is growing up and how much he can do.


We are planning a hiking trip tomorrow so hopefully I will have more pictures to share then.
