The Meyer Family

This week Bryson has finally reached that wonderful toddler stage. He is exploring everything and starting to communicate very efficiently. This leads to lots of climbing and crying when he doesn’t get his way but it is sure a joy to see him learn and “chat” with us. I have now seen him climb on to the kitchen table and try to “walk” from the coffee table to the couch. Seeing his need to crawl up anything and everything I took him to gymnastics with his friends, Gio and Rocco, on Tuesday. The toddler class is just an hour but Bryson could have spent all day there! Then yesterday Bryson and I went to the McKinleyville play group. Bryson found the basketball hoop and several balls, he spent the whole hour placing the balls in the basket then chasing them as the came out the bottom. Then last night, just to burn some energy, Drew and I took him swimming at HealthSPORT. He loves the water and more importantly the balls they have floating around.  We have moved from baby proofing to toddler proofing the whole house. Speaking of the house, it is going great. The font of the house to looking amazing and we see big changes everyday. If the rain holds off we may be done in just over a week. Today I spent the day working at a fundraiser for the California Association of Midwives, we are showing the movie, The Business of Being Born. It also came out on Netflix so I would highly recommend everyone watch it or even better have a party, invite friends and watch it together. While I was at the fundraiser Drew and Bryson had a Daddy Day. They went to the Discovery Museum and to the hardware store, then for a walk.  It sounds like they had a wonderful time together and I was sad to come home tonight to a sleeping baby L
