"Curious George"

Our little guy has a new nickname..."Curious George". Ever since he was little, he has woken up in the morning and gone to bed at night dreaming of what all he can explore. It doesn't take people long after meeting Garrett before they say, "He's SO busy!" Now that he's mobile, we've reached a whole new level of curiosity! He's into everything all day long!

He loves for us to put his toys in a basket so he can pull them out and explore them one at a time. One of his favorite games is to fill the basket...empty the basket...fill the basket...empty the basket...over and over again.

He decided to move on to exploring Daddy's hat one day after his basket of toys was emptied for the millionth time.

Exploring his closet is his new thing. If I look up and he's gone, he's either in the bathroom unrolling the toilet paper roll, or he's in his closet pulling everything out into the middle of the room.


His curiosity has also quickly moved to the cabinets in the house, so we finally had to "Curious George" proof the house. This picture is my favorite because he was going through the cabinets as fast as Jeff could add the locks. He knew his time of exploring the cabinets was quickly coming to an end.

"Maybe if I watch Daddy put these things on, I can figure out how to get them off!"

I knew the toilet paper was going to be super soon!! Last time I was over there his eye was on the sparrow, girl. Cute, cute pics. Love you.

Sounds just like Aubrey. We're baby-proofing our cabinets this weekend. What is it that attracts babies to the toilet paper rolls?

Loved the photo of Jeff installing the latches and Garrett right behind him. Staying one step in front of your kids lasts for about 30 years, and its a wonderful journey. Paw Paw and Oma
