Morning of June 1
Inspired by my blogger friend Brooke's talents, I've decided to embark upon a little project myself. Wanting to remember life in this season, I'll try to take a photo every morning for June, July, and August and share here. These are taken with our Canon Powershot SD 750, and won't be edited.
Our front stoop after I've bid my husband goodby on his way to work.May highlights in photos
Contained within this entry is a picture-heavy post (that's for you, familia!) of some photo highlights of the month of May. I'll include little captions with some of them. Enjoy!
Andrew had a birthday, so we took him out to breakfast. Here he is receiving his gift from Ransom.
We celebrated with dump cake at the home of some friends. It was his twenty fifth birthday. TWENTY FIVE YEARS!!
Ransom tried out a bumbo chair, and decided it worked pretty well.
Transfixed.
Ransom wearing his mohawk hat. Our friend Jenni made it for him. On this day, we went to the public library and Ransom got two compliments on it, one of them from an amateur fashion designer! Ha! Ransom's such a fashion forward baby...
We got to reconnect with our friend Chris.
Ransom watched me as I planted some herbs on our front stoop.
We had some quality piano time this month. Ransom tried it out himself.
We went to a graduation reception for Forrest and were able to reconnect with our friends Cory & Bekah & their little boys!
Ransom having tummy time while he's at work with me.
He caught a lion! Okay, maybe I gave it to him. :)
Thanks for reading!

Mothers Day morning, my first! We have a mirror at the top of the stairs, and we'll stand in front of it and ask, "Who's that little boy in the mirror?" Ransom will often smile and gasp when we do.
When no one's around I ask the mirror, "Who's the fairest of them all?", but I haven't received an answer yet. This mirror is lacking in magic.
Another Mothers Day photo.
Andrew bought me coffee on the way to church (a sure way to please me), we ate lunch at Chipotle and had (vegan!) frozen yogurt at my favorite local spot, then went treasure hunting, also known as thrifting. Andrew gave me supplies for a coupon binder, too, which thrilled me!
Sundays are a work day for Andrew and have a tendency to feel frantic as we tag along, but Mothers Day was a wonderful day with relaxing gaps between responsibilities. I had several "Oh my gosh, I'm a mama to this adorable baby" moments and was able to enjoy this little boy.
We were able to reconnect with Brad, a professor of ours from Bible college, who was visiting from Canada with some students he was leading.

The students took over the Sunday night youth service on Mothers Day and did an amazing job. We spent some time with Brad and the students afterward and Ransom was a big hit with the girls. :)

grass touching his feet for the first time
Tonight we dropped by a barbecue that was in honor of seniors who are a part of the local Young Life program, and on our way out, we paused in the green grass and sunshine to let Ransom take his first feel of green grass on his bare toes. He made that cute gasping happy sound and I took out my camera to capture the moment. The song "YMCA" was playing. :) I'll have a lovely memory to go with that music for the rest of my life.
I love observing Ransom as he experiences things for the first time. This discovering business has been on my mind of late thanks to this post by one of my favorite bloggers.Thanks for reading!
