Vacuuming with Mommy

Sunday night, I decided to vacuum, or "ba-boom" as Garrett calls it. He was fascinated by what I was doing, so I asked if he would help me. The next thing I know, I look over and he's got Dusty the Talking Vacuum, and he's going over everything I've already vacuumed. For the next 5 minutes this was all we did. He's such a great little helper!

Daddoo's

Garrett loves to go in the bathroom, open my "hair care" drawer and play with my "daddoo's", as he calls them (brushes, clips, hair dryer, etc...). He found this pink elastic headband and kept trying to put it on. So of course I helped him out. Once I got it on, I laughed so hard! And the more I laughed the more he wanted it on! Here's one of the pics of him with this headband on, and he was loving it!

Once the headband was on, he would run from the bathroom, then run back in and rip it off so that I could help him put it back on. He repeated this many times, leaving mommy in hysterics!


I know, I know. Pink is not his color.

Garrett LOVES water...

Garrett loves taking baths and loves swimming. Splashing is the most fun, and the wetter everything gets, the better! Here, I came home from work one night and Doug was giving Garrett a bath in the utility tub in the laundry room. Since he's outgrown his toddler tub, and we haven't installed the new bathtub yet, this worked perfectly!

On Friday, June 20th, It was pretty hot outside so we turned on the sprinkler and let Garrett run loose! He kept trying to drink from the streams of water coming out. What a ham!

Finally! A new computer!

I'm finally in the 21st century with technology! We finally got a new computer and I'm able to upload images and video to Garrett's blog, literally at the touch of a button! Here are some more recent pics to show how much he's grown since my last posting.





Daddy and Garrett sporting "new do's" (via the vacuum)




As most people who know us know, Garrett is obsessed with vacuum cleaners, mostly calling them "buttis". Finally I broke down and got him his own "buttis", Dusty the Talking Vacuum.
Here he is, not even waiting for a diaper after his bath, to play with his new toy.


Lately Garrett just loves to hug Kyanne, our cat. He likes to pin her down and lay on her, and she's really great about it. She will usually just tolerate it until he's done, or until he loosens his grip to escape at an opportune moment.
