Nothing like the feeling of new carpeting on the paws!

As you can see somebody else likes the new carpeting too!! Chevy has been laying and playing on it all day. He has made himself right at home in our home the past couple of weeks. Even though it's still a battle of the sexes between the cat and the dog I think with time that will pass.

Well today I went on another mad mission for socks for Rose E (round three) and came out empty handed): I have searched all over kingdom come and found that all of the baby socks have some kind of elastic in them, I suppose to keep them on. I guess I will have to do some more searching online. We had a fun visit tonight though, Jeff's aunt and cousin Claire where in town (helping Jeff's cousin Wesley move home, he has been going to college here and is done for the summer). Walter was thrilled to get to play with his cousins Kirsten and Cale.

I thought I would also mention a few of Walter's question today since I got a kick out of them. First of all, with potty training we have been spending a lot of time in the bathroom lately and he was looking at a couple of lighthouses that we have on the back of the toilet and he said "mama why there not a sidewalk coupled up to the two lighthouses(coupled up is a train term that gets used in his everyday language quite often)?" He also said today, "mama cars don't grow, why cars not grow?" I swear we should have named him George! Speaking of books, Rose E was cute today as she "read" a book to me and then closed it and said "all done!" She has been looking at several things and saying "that?" too. Her words of the day where "chick", "birdy" and "more" (bird and more she signed as she said them).
