Little Helper

Wynn seems to have "woken up" in the last month. He suddenly notices birds in the sky, the noise of an ambulance in the distance, the change in the wind, or the lighting in a room.... when he notices such things he usually says "what's dat?" or grabs the first willing hand and pulls them over to investigate with him. Its so fun to see him get excited about something and see where he will lead me, but he's getting stronger everyday and learning that he doesn't like if I can't go where he wants when he wants. He stomps his feet and sits down to cry... lol. It's funny when it's not happening. He's also become quite the up climber... and not the greatest down climber. Thus, he perfectly fits the term bruiser and currently has matching black eyes to prove it. I just cant seem to baby proof enough without putting him in a portable bubble. Anyway, we've been doing a little light remodeling around the house and Wynn couldn't be more fascinated. He wants to "help" with everything, but since most projects aren't exactly baby-friendly we either have to wait until the kids are in bed or gate off the project, which I'm sure you can imagine he doesn't love. I'm so grateful again to have a little-bit-of-everything husband who knows/can learn how to do most anything and one day be able to teach our kids. I don't get to escape the learning either; he strongly encourages me to participate in all the home repairs too and has given me a lesson or two on home wiring and construction already. In the project pictures below he finished by installing a ceiling fixture in the living room since it lacked one. Future pictures should have a lot better lighting! Also, note the pre and post hair cut in the photos... I'm not a fan of this cut, but it was only my third time and he is VERY wiggly now; It grows back I guess :).
