Weekend, Watermelon, and Adventures of Spencer

This Morning I found Spencer sitting in his baby basket. When he was a newborn he slept in the basket next to our bed but now that he has outgrown it we keep some of his toys in there. Lately he has started climbing in and out of things, it is very cute.
Last week Spencer quietly disappeared while I was cooking dinner. I found him in the bathroom closet playing with the toilet paper. You can't see it in this picture but he took a bite out of each roll of toilet paper he was playing with. He is such a busy boy. After trying all summer to grow watermelons we decided to harvest one of them and see how it turned out. I got three to grow about the size of the one in the picture. As you can see Spencer thought it was delicious. It wasn't as red or as sweet as store bought watermelons but it was alright and I am glad we could eat it.

Last weekend we went to Goldendale Washington to visit my Grandparents. Spencer is their first Great-Grandchild. My Parents and three of my sisters were there along with my Aunt and Uncle and there family. It was fun to get to see everyone. Below is a four generation picture of Spencer, Me and Jared, My Dad and my Grandpa Morgan.

P.S. 10 month

Spencer is also standing up on his own for a few minutes at a time. Even though I think he could do it, he still is not trying to walk without holding onto things. Jared has been trying to coax him with all kinds of tempting treats to get him to walk between us but Spencer always ends up dropping to the ground and crawling.

10 Months

Spencer is 10 months old! We are currently dogsitting Rusty, for Jared's parents. He will be with us for a month. Spencer has really loved having Rusty here. All day he crawls over to Rusty's bed to give him a hug and pet him. It is very sweet and I am trying not to think too much about all of the dirt and dog germs. Rusty is very gentle and patient with Spencer. Spencer has also starting crawling around making a cute little growling noise. Today he figured out how to pull himself up onto the fireplace, the rocking chair, and the couch. I am sure this new skill will make life more interesting. Today I got a new hair cut. It is a change for me and I think I like it. Below are some current pictures.
