It's Fort-astic!

In an effort to make room for baby #2 to live upstairs with the rest of the family I'm making Matt sell off all our excess furniture. Prior to this evening we had 7 couches in our house (not counting the 2 we lent to my parents).

We managed to sell one on Craigslist but before we could say good-bye a fort had to be constructed with the cushions.

When the lucky new owners came to pick it up I started carrying the cushions over to the door. Charlie chased after me saying 'fort, fort, fort'. Poor little guy will just have to make a fort with the cushions from one of the remaining six couches.
On an unrelated note Charlie learned how to say his name tonight (and possibly read it too?). He knows his letters thanks to a letter puzzle he does daily. Tonight we spelt out his name in blocks and asked him what it said. He responded with a 'Charlie!'. Actually it sounded more like Chatsie but its close enough for a 20-month old kid!
