Cardboard Box etc

Here are a few photos of Finley getting into things these last couple weeks:

Shoes continue to be a source of fascination, and anything stick-like is a perfect tool for smacking things.

Getting into Mom's yarn supply.


We kept the cardboard box for the new baby backpack - it's been converted into a "bed" for Finley so he can pretend to be a baby and take naps in it - what a fun game! Very clever ruse by us, although it hasn't exactly worked. He loves snuggling up in the box, but he's too smart to be tricked into taking a nap.

Playing "baby."

Getting restless.

Reading with Dad. Finley likes to read the same stories over and over - as soon as we finish a book, he pushes it back into our hands and insists on starting over. This can go on for 4 or 5 readings before our eyes glaze over and we find a way to redirect his attention.

Raiding the spice cabinet - so much fun!

More cardboard box fun.

Playing with tractors and paprika on Great-Grandpa Alsobrook's sheepskin rug - a winning combination.

I think Heather was referring to the onesie. TJ loves to wear Onesies.

A onesie over his hot pink diaper- this is his favorite outfit to wear to work!

yes - I can see TJ looking very professional in that stylish combo.
