"Downs"

Jameson and I spent last night at our pastors house. They are moving tt New Jersey soon, so the adults were out there putting in an offer on a house. I was there to watch the two youngest kids, 3 and 5 year old girls. When they found out that I was coming over, they were very very excited. No, scratch that. When they found out that Jameson was coming, they were excited. I think they learned my name just yesterday.

Gracie, the 5 year old, asked to use my camera, and she was very careful with it. But I didn't realize at first that it was on video mode, so we ended up with several unintentional videos. This is my favorite.



Jameson loved the stairs. When we first arrived, we went up to the boys room so he could see where he would be sleeping. I think the girls were excited to get to play with their brother's things, so we stayed in there for awhile. After going downstairs and playing outside for a few minutes, Jameson decided he wanted all those toys again. He was halfway up the stairs before I knew it.



I figured he should learn how to go down stairs as well, and he picked that right up. He went nearly all the way down, then back up again, and Gracie caught him going back down once more.

The house was just perfect for Jameson. (It should be, with six kids living there!) He had a lot of fun coloring with the youngest, although his attention span was much shorter than hers.


He also quickly discovered that the doors in their house were much easier to open than ours. So he investigated the pantry.



And Gracie took a self portrait while I cleaned up.
