Depot Fire

Alden turned 8 months old on September 27th.  Some milestones he drinks out of sippy cup by himself, can walk a few steps holding your hands, sit up like a chap, and can splash all of the water out of the bath tub.  He seriously is the best behaved child in all of the world.  He hardly ever cries and sleeps all night.  He will eat anything and smiles and plays well by himself and with others.  I drug him all over the place the other day and he never even acted cranky.  We are so blessed to have such a sweet boy with a mellow temperament.  He is also super cute as evidenced in the picture below.   
In other news we recently discovered that the Home Depot nearby has a free kids craft on the first Saturday of every month.  We had to check it out because it is free.  Apparently this was their big activity for the year, fire safety awareness, so besides making our own firetruck there was also Smokey the Bear, face painting, and a fire truck and ambulance for the kids to go in
Our little builder at work.  They also give the kids a free apron.

 Just hanging out with Smokey.
 Practicing his driving skills :)
 And here he is at home withe the completed project.  I think he looks pretty happy with his new free toy.  Can't wait for next month when he builds us a napkin holder :)
