Two peas in a pod.

The day that Baby Juniper joined the family.

Charlie and his big boy bed.

Now that I know Katie has seen Liz's big announcement post, I can put up pictures of Charlie's new bed. His Grandpa and YaYa delivered it today. Grandpa Steve made it to match the toy box he made for Charlie about a year and a half ago, and it has storage galore. Charlie is so far in love with it. I'm only a little worried because its kind of tall, but he's probably big enough to handle it at this point. It was funny to tuck him in with a top sheet tonight and blankets tucked in the the mattress; and in that way he had outgrown his crib-sized bed. I feel like he is as snug as a little bug in there tonight (tucked in with Pooh, Pooh #2, the frog, Geoffrey the Giraffe and Shake-A-Bear, and with room to spare; but no more friends in bed, that's the limit).

And of course I had to put up a new picture of Charlie and his Kali. She delivered Charlie's Ikea mattress on Saturday, and we loved having her stay with us. Charlie wouldn't even let me enter the room sometimes, he thought maybe I would ruin his fun (and I didn't even mind).

20 weeks.

Much bonding and one baby outfit complete 

(cobblestone sweater with rose wood buttons, acorn hat and eco booties).

Me'nage a' Trois.

And not the wine...

Liz and I have been enjoying Pamela Druckerman's Bringing up Be'Be' so much that I thought she might also like to read this story, an article written for Marie Claire. Not really about parenting.

National Start Walking (and Swinging) Day.

Charlie was in a total zen the whole time we went for a walk today, and while swinging (a relief for the poor baby and his poor teeth and gums). I think pushing Charlie in the swing for the first time was my complete favorite moment in life thus far.

Gardening Barefoot

http://www.onedaywithoutshoes.com/ We're for any cause that means going barefoot. (Charlie was so adament that he ripped his socks off while napping and threw them on the floor from his crib.)

Maybe more on the gardening front when baby goes to bed. He's having a rough day with that poor fourth tooth.

Will you be my Valentine(s) all year?

A little bit belated, but enjoy the cute video and lovely cheer . . .
