Super Rory

For Father's Day, we agreed that Rory and I would make something for Andrew. We hope to start a tradition of homemade gifts and time together for holidays like this. It will be fun to see what Rory comes up with when he's responsible for making a gift all on his own. For now, though, I get to help. Here's what we came up with for this year:

If you're wondering how I did it you should know it was surprisingly low-fi. I had some extra freezer paper from another craft project, so I made a city scene with paper and marker and taped it to the floor. Rory's cape is actually just a t-shirt, cut to fit like a cape. There are several tutorials about how to do this online. Finally, his hero "costume" is actually just a cheap-o sleeper from Target. The hardest part was moving the furniture to get enough floor space. 

Rory Rolls

After a few weeks of alllllmost rolling over, Rory has finally figured it out. This is bad news for his arch nemesis, Tummy Time. Now he starts out on his tummy, unhappy as ever, and flips quickly to his back. It's just as adorable as it sounds. Click HERE to watch the video.
