Breven has had a lot of firsts since our last post as well. He can now pull himself up and stand! He will let go for a couple of seconds and just stand there, but he falls down pretty quickly. We have been spending a lot of time working on teaching him to feed himself and eat finger foods, and how to walk. He has also experienced his first bonfire, garage sales, swinging outside, and playing on the grass. We are coming up to his first birthday party as well which will be a blast! I think that we are going to grill out at a beach for the day weather permitting.
A couple of weeks ago we finally, finally put up a fence! This has been the biggest change in our lives since the last post! It is so great to not have any dangerous leashes in the yard anymore. With the help of some great friends and lots of beer we were able to get the whole fence up in one Saturday. We had Matt's Mom Laurie here to watch Breven, our friends Amanda and Earl and Amanda and Jeremy, and my uncle Eddie put up the fence. Thanks guys! We ended up with some extra fencing so soon we will be fencing in a garden. Matt and I planted some watermelons and raspberries yesterday for Mother's day and we will be planting the pumpkins in two weeks. Right now they are starting off inside and once the garden fence goes up we will transplant them outside.
My first Mother's day went really good. Matt made pancakes for breakfast and cleaned the house. In the evening Jeff and Laurie came up for dinner. After they left we did our planting and got a couple of hours to relax. So I'm sure I forgot tons of things, but that's all until next time...
he played so hard he passed out on the living room floor
his first time garage saling, it was chilly out so he was nice and bundled up!
this morning.. he kept saying "oooohhh"
