Ben fell asleep. Since he's almost one (crazy!), we're trying to get him to take a sippy cup instead of a bottle. He'll do okay with a regular sippy cup, but we decided to buy a transition sippy cup that has the bottle top, but sippy cup bottom. He does very well with it. It also has different tops that can be put on as he adjusts. The next top is an inbetween bottle and sippy cup top, then the final top is an actual sippy cup top. It was about $7 at Walmart.
Ben, like most children his age, has discovered the many unobvious uses of toilet paper. You can unroll it, throw it, tear it, and eat it. Ben didn't like the taste and spent about 2 minutes trying to pick it out of his mouth.
We've put child locks on all of our bathroom cabinets so Ben can't get my hairspray or hair dryer anymore, but sometimes we forget to shut the bathroom door to prevent this from happening. He always lets us know when he's crawling on his way to something 'exciting', though. He starts crawling really fast and makes little breathy panting noises (I don't know how to describe it) on his way to trouble. He makes those noises when he sees that the gate blocking off the kitchen was accidentally left open, and when the bathroom door was left open. He's gotten stealthier about getting to my laptop, though. No noises, just open handed keyboard slaps. The only time we worry about him is when he's quiet. That usually means he's eating something he found on the floor.
Chris, as a late Christmas present to me, ripped up the ugly carpeting in our bedroom. It was the last room in our house that had carpeting. Chris misses it, but it looks SO MUCH BETTER now.
The floor still has some spots that need work, but for floor that had 80's carpeting on it, it's not bad! I was a little worried, but really anything would have been better. I'm going to be mopping and scrubbing the floor this coming weekend.
Here's a random picture of Ben with a yogurt melt stuck to his face. It looks like a camera glitch, but it's not. It stayed on his face for a solid minute before he started pouting and rubbed it off (on accident).
