Morning light

Mac loves his mornings and he loves the backyard. It is fun to be with him as the sun rises. 

Reminds me of early dawn walks with KR when she was a little one. 

I think he spotted the setting moon...

Good night, good night, construction site

Mac'a newfound love of trucks extends to books about trucks, such as Good Night Construction Site. In the book, one of the trucks goes to sleep with a lovey on its head. 

Today Mac received an amazing cement mixer from Tia. After playing with it for quite a while he and the truck apparently got tired. 

He put his favorite lovey on the truck's 'head' and gave it his paci while

He was at it. 

(His sweetness kills me!!!)

Cozy mornings

Here's a post from early November that didn't load properly. 

***********************

New collection of footie PJs is making for cozier mornings. 

Our days are still way too hot and sunny to be "autumn" so it's still shortsleeve weather in the daytime!

Breaking dawn

Mac has a new habit of getting up at 5:29am on the nose. 

He wants a bottle and a book and will not be convinced to do anything else, even though it's pitch black outside.  

While I would greatly appreciate an additional 30 minutes of sleep, I also love getting an extra bit of quieter, cozier time with this little man. 

He's so much fun to play with *and* he understands my need for coffee. I press the button on the machine and he says "coffee!"

Lately he's been giving lots of love to our collection of babies. We might have to ask Santa to bring Mac a baby of his own. 

He's feeding big doll Cheerios this morning. 

And giving baby a toy.
