Housebound in Hillsboro
We’re certainly having some extreme winter weather here lately. Lex and I have been housebound for days because of the bitter cold and all the snow and ice. Mommy is starting to go a little stir-crazy! I’m all for a white Christmas, but this is ridiculous…
Anyways, the indoor monotony doesn’t seem to be affecting Lex. He’s happy as always:
Here he’s playing the “counting cup game” with daddy. He takes off the cups one by one and Tim counts down.
I think Lex is very close to being mobile. He is now doing this sort of inch-worm army crawl move when he really wants to get at something. Usually it’s something that he shouldn’t have, like a medicine or ointment bottle. But he gets really excited and motivated to move when it’s something off-limits to him. And when we don’t let him have something, he now scolds us by shouting “nay nay nay!” It’s actually very cute.
