January Work Weekend

Now  that the holidays are over it was time to re-set the house and organize. We were thrilled to have our wonderful basement complete just before James was born, but never really did anything with all the stuff we moved to make the rec room a reality. 
In addition to the basement project, Patrick had wonderful help from dads, brothers and friends to drywall and hang cabinets in our garage this fall. (Pictures of all of this to come!)

This weekend we managed to put a good dent in our long to-do list and still spend some quality weekend time with James! (You'll notice I did remember to take pictures of him!)

James "helped" a lot this weekend and enjoyed some time in some new toys/ seats that we set up. He is getting so big, I can't even believe it!
Here he is in his new Johnny Jumper wearing Patrick's work goggles!
While he still doesn't quite get the concept of jumping on his own, he loves when you bounce him a little bit and is so happy to "stand". 

On Sunday he also helped me make lunch. This was the first time facing out in the baby bjorn --- I think he liked it, though it has to be a weird feeling floating in and out of the fridge :)


James also watched me make banana bread!


And we set up his high chair.  Not quite ready for food, though since he is such a fan of being upright, we thought he could join us at the table for meals.


Finally, enjoying a little time with Daddy on the i-pad.

Feeling very accomplished - but the weekends always go too fast,
especially when you have this sweet face waiting for you!
