Monday miscellany

Spring is in the air. We've been getting outside and taking walks in the evenings sometimes, and playing outside some afternoons. I am ready for spring!

And with spring, of course, comes spring cleaning!  I stripped all the couch cushions of their covers, 

leaving a pile in the middle of the living room like a deflated couch, and hauled the living room rug off to the clothesline.Then all those covers went into the washer, and from there onto the line for some sunbleaching and fresh air.

 

Of course, there were plenty of interesting things under the couch cushions.  A spoon.  Multiple clean socks (I regularly fold laundry on the couch).   A small toy car.  And debris, which you must promise to ignore before viewing the following picture, shared for the exceptional cuteness of the serious small helper...

Love those wispy curls.  He is slated to get his First Haircut Ever on his 2nd birthday in a few weeks.  He's never even had a trim.  Yes, he was a very hairless baby!

One week old...                                                           Five months old...

 Seven months old. Check out the double chin!

I digress.  Good thing I labelled this miscellany, right? ;)

Now one more picture of cuteness to close... Miriam looooooooves peekaboo.
