Let Us Pray

Forest's new favorite activity is praying. Throughout the day Forest will randomly fold his arms, look at me, bow his head, and wait for me to say a prayer. At the end he will say "men" or something that sounds close to "men". It is adorable! His frequent praying has encouraged me to find more things to be thankful for in each of our prayers in the day.

P.S. Forest LOVES the power cords to our cell phones, and although I hide them from him he quickly finds them and wears them. Some days it is just too big of a fight to try and take them away.

Lindsey and Seth

Last week we had Forest's Aunt Lindsey and Uncle Seth come to visit!Forest loved hanging out with them. When he woke up in the morning he couldn't wait to get out of his room and see what they were up to. (note: in the picture above Forest is standing on a stool - he is not as tall as he appears in this picture)
We took our guests all over Portland and neighboring areas. We just played, played, played all week!

Uncle Seth brought his Magic microphone. Forest was captivated when Seth sang,

And couldn't wait to try it out himself.

THANKS FOR VISITING AUNT LINDSEY AND UNCLE SETH!! WE LOVE YOU GUYS!!

My Skinny Kid

Having a skinny kid has been really nice when it comes to buying clothes. Until recently Forest has been able to fit in his 3-6month old clothes. But in the last week I have noticed that EVERY pair of Forest's pants are high waters on him and ALL of his onesies are skin tight. What's going on? I should have noticed this new development earlier since Forest can easily grab items off the edge of the table and can almost get onto chairs, but I have been blind to this new phenomenon and I have let it creep up on me .This onesie is size 3-6 months. It doesn't look incredible tight in this picture, but it is a cute picture of Forest so I wanted to put it on my blog anyways.

This picture has nothing to do with my blog but look at Forest's waves! Aren't they adorable? These curls are from Bridger because my curls are around my face but Bridger's are in the back. Because I love these curls I will not cut them but I do cut the sides... so Forest has a very fashionable mullet.
