Break Time Fun

Today is my last day of winter break. Tomorrow I head over to Austin for teacher training sessions. It seems a little strange to go back for one day before having the weekend, but I'm not complaining. I have had a wonderful relaxing break! I had a huge list of things to do in our house while I was home, but I ended up spending a lot of time with Charlie and the rest of my family. It was worth it!

Whenever I'm in the kitchen, Charlie follows me right in there! Since our cupboards are very hard to open, I decided to make Charlie his own little kitchen toy box. I put a bunch of containers and utensils in there for him to explore with. As soon as he found it this morning, he was playing like crazy!

Here's one side of it. 

After Tony took apart the old entertainment center, I vacuumed up the dust bunnies. Charlie helped me. 

Becky came to visit us. Charlie's sitting on his buddy or future girlfriend to arrive in late February. Notice the nice maternity sweater Becky's wearing? I loaned her some of my clothes. Maternity clothes are incredibly expensive! It was so fun to spend that time with Becky! 

Here's Charlie showing us one of his many silly faces and clapping his hands. 

Water has been a favorite of Charlie's lately. His sippy doesn't sit too far from him. 

Sol relaxing the day away. 

Like I said, I have had a great break at home!
