the bee's knees

Today Jonah crawled to and discovered our laundry room tiny laundry closet.



He thought he was just the bee's knees.


But then he realized I was THREE FEET AWAY! (The nerve...)


So he crawled back to me...


Stuck out his cute little tongue...


Smiled...


And gave me about five knee hugs.


It was awesome.

What is with kids and laundry rooms? Its like the coolest place on the planet until THEY have to start doing the laundry!

Those are some of THE CUTEST pictures I have ever seen! I'm so happy that he is crawling... and I know you are going to kill me for saying this but - he looks like a little man - SO CUTE!!!!

first of all could your laundry room be any cleaner? I am ashamed!

Such a sweet little lover! Love those knee hugs!

Ya, I'm agreeing with "The Oxford Family"s comment..... What a clean laundry room.... I mean, closet!

I was lookin' at the pictures thinking, "Hey! Empty laundry baskets! Wow! I haven't seen one of those in a looong time!" hahaa

Jonah's adorable. I'm betting he's a typical boy/man and was really trying to get to that vacuum to hear the motor running! Men and their machines!

Bless his little heart!

Jonah is so cute. It is the best time watching them discover everything on their own. I know you are enjoying every moment.

He IS the bee's knees!! I love the pics, and I love the fact that he's crawling even more! When I started reading your blog, must've been at least a year ago now, and learning about EB, I wondered what would happen when this day would come for you guys. Jonah is doing so well, I couldn't be happier for all of you! Go Jonah!!

I love that 1st picture--you can almost hear him say "ain't I the cutest" Jonah is adorable.

Those knee hugs are so sweet - did they make up fo some of his puking? (ha)

I hope you have a great Memorial Day weekend.

Love ya

Libby said...

That's so great--and how is your laundry room floor SO clean!!??

Laura said...

That's so fun! Mobility can make some things harder, but isn't it great that he can be more independent and in control of where he is. They love it! Great pictures!

Heidi said...

blue eyed cuteness!

Jennifer Strosnider said...

ahhh! the cuteness!

Jennifer said...

He is too adorable, your "closet" is too clean, your baskets too empty, your knees too lucky and your are WAY blessed! (but not too much!). He is a HAM and a cutie! By the way, if I ever SAW an empty laundry basket in my house I would definitely find a cat in it.... But then it would not be empty now would it..... Jennifer of Southeast, NC
