Monkey See, Monkey Do

I am so proud of my little Monkey! Aside from the fact that he is just sooooo much fun, it's so cool to watch him develop mentally.
This morning after his shower we were putting on some lotion and he helped me rub it in. Then, when it was time to get dressed (he was running around) I help up his shorts and told him we had to put some clothes on. He came over to me and tried to step in to his shorts as I held them up for him. Lol, of course, he didn't quite make it, he hasn't figured out that he needs to hold on to something to keep his balance, so he sat down on my lap and put his foot through. Then he carefully put his other foot through and stood up so that I could pull them up. All without me telling him too. Then, after running around for a couple minutes first, it was time to put on his shirt. I put it over his head and, again without any guidance from me, he tried to put his arms through the sleeves. I had to help him, but he knew what he needed to do. It was so cool!

On other topics, I'm stoked about camping this year. It will be so odd to go a month later than normal. This will be only the 2nd time in my life that I will be home on the 24th of July. Another thing that I am excited about though, is that my grandmother will be coming up with us. Woohoo!! We do have a dilemma, though, in that as my sister is not going we do not have a truck capable of pulling a trailer. This means that we have 1 car, one station wagon and one subaru cruck (a car with a truck bed, or maybe a truck that wishes it was a car) to take up 9 people, a week's supply of food, coolers to put it in, tents, bedding, cooking gear, clothes & general camping paraphernalia. Not good. Maybe someone can find a truck to borrow. I really don't think it would be an issue if we had a nice big truck & trailer. Nevertheless, AAAHHHHH I'm excited!!!

As for our personal businesses, they're not all up and running yet. Hubby-man has started some advertising for his and I'm still working on training for Mary Kay, though I do have my first four skin care classes scheduled for next week. I should have my inventory by Tuesday. I've been revving up for the last two weeks, hopefully once I get going I'll have some good momentum & be able to keep it.
