We have a crawler!

Well crazy as it is, James is officially crawling, today was really the day he put two and two together and can move both legs and arms together. There is no stopping him now, seriously, anything he wants to get his hands on he goes for it, baby gates are going up and there is no more leaving him unattended to go around the corner to the kitchen. Like my mom said, no more sitting down!

So without further ado, I give you James crawling!

James Now

Since it has been so long probably thought I should post a new picture and an update of the little guy. He can now roll over both directions, he is almost crawling, he wishes he could just walk everywhere. He is babbling like crazy and says "mama" when he is sad or upset. I can't believe he is 6 1/2 months already. He is so big and so lovable the best baby a momma could ask for.

Coat Closet Clean Out

Well I finally got down and dirty and cleaned out our coat closet, or shall we say the catch all. I took out all one hundred jackets, which only about six of them still fit or were worth keeping. Goodwill is going to love us. As I started digging out from the bottom of the closet, I knew there had to be little spiders waiting for me, but only found one, I think he ate all the others, after screaming when he came crawling out, I finally killed him with a couple good blows from the broom. During all this James was having fun playing with the storage bins and watching mom freak out over a spider, he thought it was pretty funny. After finally getting all the jackets hung up again, and all the Rockband guitars and drums downstairs and cleared out, I hung up the storage hanger and started putting everything back in. I never realized how many board games we have.

Well no more waiting, I can't believe I am posting the before picture, seriously we really aren't slobs, just this closet got away from us. I am pretty proud of it!

Here are the links to the Target  storage bins and hanging organizer

 Okay so here is the before, YIKES!

And now the after, thank you Target for all your storage and organization products!

SAHM- Stay-at-Home Mom

Well after much thought and consideration, JD and I have decided that I am going to stay home with James. It's funny cause I type this it still hasn't sunk in. I feel like I need to go back to work, but there is no way that I could leave James. I applaud all those moms that go back to work and are able to leave their little ones, I obvisouly don't have that strength. I am still trying to find something that I can do from home to bring in a little extra money, but something will come.

I have to say that I seriously can't believe that I get to stay with my amazing little man. I can't wait to teach him to walk, talk and do all those great things and be there to document it all.

So expect all those great things to be documented on here as well, below is the start of it all. James gibber-jabbering and also running his little legs!
