This has been a Periodic Traffic Report, brought to you by Mommy News.
Remember to watch out for firetrucks (or just ding the bell on the firetruck whenever you can get close enough), and join us for the get demolition derby next week where the "beat-boxing Tonka truck" is expected to bonk into a lot of other toys and furniture.
From Mommy:
Out of nowhere Preston took his first steps today!! He was playing with John in his room. I went in to see what was going on, and I sat down on the floor next to the futon. Preston cruised his way along the futon towards me, and when he got to the end he let go and took his first three steps into my arms. John saw him do it, too. I wouldn't exactly call it walking, but it's "baby steps." I guess it's time to get ready for a lot of falling. I am so proud of him!
In other news, you might as well re-name me Crafty Carrie. I've been working on a ton of projects lately. I finished an adorable pink fluffy knit hat over the weekend for a friend at work. Last night I made a wreath out of dried oranges and lemons (I dried them in the oven over the weekend), and tonight I made John a scarf that matches the pea coat that I made for Preston a few weeks ago. I'm staying busy in the evenings, and it's only going to get busier in anticipation of Christmas.
