Tater Monkey

Tate helping himself to some popcorn at Grandma's house over Christmas break. 



 Exploring everything on the table.  Such a curious kid. 

He loves to climb. We find him on tables or counters like this everyday. 

This was him yesterday.  He is standing on a table outside, looking through the window at me.  He would climb up and say "homie, mommy."  (Hold me) 

I would get him down and he would climb right back up and say it again.  Funny kid.



Brylee's Play Kitchen

We got this little kitchen/ cupboard piece from in-laws garage over Christmas. 

I had been eyeing it for a few years, and finally asked about it.

It was built by Brian's grandpa for Brian's little sisters. 

Lucky for me, neither of the little sisters were interested in it.

So with some time and a little TLC it went from this to....

This! 

I like how it turned out, and most importantly, so does Brylee. 

We had to have a Cardinal on it.  :)

I free handed the branches, made potato stamps for the flowers and green birds, and made a stencil to trace for the cardinal. 

It was fun.  I'm glad it is done and being used now.
