unfolded laundry and partial side bangs

the post-holiday routine seems to have officially settled in. it's nice. it's snowy. i like it. our home feels like a home. and home.

we have new couches. two trips to the cincinatti ikea. one as a family and one just my studfest husband. i just realized i've already mentioned the couches. i suppose they're that big of a deal.

joseph has been pretending he's a baby. if i've talked to you on the phone recently, i've probably mentioned it because it just seems so crazy to me that this little guy can not only pretend, but keep up the act for most of an afternoon. he crawls around our apartment, grabs onto my leg as if he can't actually stand, and says "night-night" and lies down on a blanket. it's amazing.

he also likes to pretend he's a cat. and a kitten. two separate animals, mind you. the kitten says "meow-meow" and touches your face, and the cat (who joined me at the grocery store this afternoon) says "hhhhheeeh!" and puts both hands up in a ree-errr motion.

annnnyway, i feel like there was more to tell, but really, some of my stories start to feel kind of silly once i type them out, so delete-delete-delete..

some pictures from the past week:

love that last photo of the train tracks all over the place. oh the messes little bodies can make! the pretending is so sweet! I know what you mean, how it's amazing that your baby knows how to pretend - Finn's been doing it too. what sweet boys.
oh, congrats on the couches. I know how awesome a new couch can be.
