August

Not that I need to make any other excuses for not posting, but... the baby did break my laptop where I store all my videos and pictures. Luckily he didn't mess up the hard drive and Big Rufus was able to fix it. And shortly there after the big hard drive on our desktop crashed. Crisis averted, but strain on my blog. I will try to get everything caught up.

Well by now you should know that I'm pregnant and Lil Rufus will be having a baby brother or sister in February, but no we don't find out if it is a boy or a girl until October 8th. So mark your calendars!

August started off with a blast with Lil Rufus' Birthday.

Sarah came over on his birthday and brought him a cupcake and the world's most annoying balloon. It was great! The balloon lasted about a month.

I got someone else to do his cake this year. It was well worth it.

Rufus tried real hard to blow out his candle, but just couldn't do it all by himself.

We bought Rufus only a few things this year. This is a family portrait in his new play house. He loves to press the doorbell, talk on the phone, and deliver mail.

We also got him a bouncy house. It isn't as much fun without friends, but we should have some over this week to test it out with him.

Rufus loves Elmo, so I thought that we should get him a stuffed animal that is his size, and lo and behold I actually found it.

With our play group we went to a playground in Columbia. It was very cute and had lots of stuff to do. Each area was themed. I can't remember the theme of this area.

Here is Rufus opening the 3 Little Bears mailbox.

And playing with his friend Quinn in Old MacDonald's house.

This was just a huge bench in the garden section, again with Quinn. Rufus and Quinn are about 10 days apart. They play so well together and even better yet, I like Quinn's Mommy!
