Today we got our carpets cleaned.  And let me tell you, they reeaaally needed them, bad!  When we moved in the past tenants had "cleaned" them with a rented machine, but really just got them soaking wet.  So now they are clean and our feet won't turn black and the knees of hudson pants will stay a little cleaner.
Moral of the story, I am sitting on the couch in out kitchen with nothing to do, waiting for the carpets to dry.

Jason is at work, Hudson is asleep, and I am booored!

So let me tell you about my funny baby.
Can you believe he is almost one!?  Oh man, I can't!

• He loves to "talk on the phone". Or remote, or anything semi phone shaped.  He puts it to his ear and says "'lo?" "Hedo!" and jibber-jabbers away.
• The other day he found a bucket of coins in a cupboard and spilt them everywhere. So. Fun.  While I was putting them away, he helped me put them away, one by one.  Later he found a nickel we missed and I watched him crawl across the kitchen, open the cupboard, and look for the bucket to put the nickel away.
• He is very neat & organized.  He loves to put things away, and move things from once container to the next.  I find the remote in the diaper bag, random things in boxes, even a soap from our bedroom in the diaper bag in the front room.
• He likes to drink from cups, or bowls, or anything that slightly resembles a cup.  He tries to tilt it up and see if there is something he can drink inside.
• He won't let me feed him from a spoon.  We haven't ever been too big on just spoon feeding, but now he has to try himself, which can get pretty dang messy.
• He sometimes likes to make animal noises while reading books. Like "Cockadoodledoo!" or "Cockadododoo!" and "Meow", or "ow!", and "Mooooo!"
