Big Kid

Yesterday while we were folding clothes I put Kale in the clothes basket so we didn't have to keep stopping to chase him down for the last of the load. It wasn't long before we realized this wasn't safe...so before getting our child out of harms way Jason grabbed the camera to take pictures :). Of course I held onto the laundry basket so it wouldn't tip over.

Sitting in the laundry basket

Not going to be content for long Standing up Yes, Kale grabbed the sides of the basket and stood up on his own. I kept sitting him down and he kept standing up. This kid doesn't know how to sit still. I'm sure all little ones seem this way or at least I keep telling myself they all are!

Big surprise this morning, Kale got a compliment after church for sitting so still :). Geez...he must look better than how he feels on my lap! After Kale's good behavior in church we headed to Springfield to reward him with a new car seat- okay we had been planning on getting it before the compliment, but we can say it was his reward!

While we were shopping today Kale got to sit in the shopping cart for the first time and thought he was a big kid. He did really well, but didn't last the whole time we were grocery shopping...I think he complained less than Jason though :). It's funny how exciting it is that he can ride in the cart instead of having to take the car seat in or carry him the whole time! Is that a sign I am getting old(er)?!?
