This, That, and a New Chair

A few months ago I found this little chair at a garage sale for $5. The material it was covered in was old and stained but I thought about recovering it. My mom went with me to Joann's Fabric to help pick out fabric for the chair. I wanted to find some retro cowboy fabric or some brown faux suede to match our couches. I got lucky and found both! I found some super cute red cowboy fabric and brown suede that had off white fuzz on the back. Here are the before and after pictures.

The white is fuzz. 

The brown is the faux suede.

Such a big boy!

Bo has been doing new things, trying new things, and being just an overall joy (most of the time) to be around. He tried some rice cereal but still hasn't lost the extrusion reflex so his tongue pushed all the food out instead of in. We're going to try again in a week or so. 

He's also been becoming a lot more active with his toys. He really enjoys them. He recognizes familiar toys and gets excited for new ones. Garage sales are so awesome for new, cheap toys. I love plush toys you can hang on things because I can pop them in the washing machine and put them outside (which is as hot as an oven) and they're as good as new!

LOVE this picture of my boys!
