It never gets old

These are all songs learned at school. This is the newest one.


This one is called Bear Hunt.


This last one is the Tidy Up song, something about being finished for the day, we think.

It's Pumpking Farm time again!

The infamous pumpkin eating dinosaur who belches after each pumpkin.



We had another beautiful day as long as you don't mind the hundreds of other people who also come to the farm.



This jumping pillow is something new for us this year. No surprise, Evan loved it.

Uncle Reid and Auntie Suzie's visit




Sorry, uncle Reid, in both of the pictures we took, you have your eyes closed.




Grandma and Grandpa's visit



We went with Grandma and Grandpa to a conservatory and had a lovely time. Evan got to dig around in the dirt. There were vegetables and flowers but he wanted to dig up the bugs. Can he be any more of a boy?

I guess this is the definition of ear to ear smile. He's a pirate in case you weren't sure. He has his sword in his belt and his parrot on his shoulder.


We sure are glad Grandma and Grandpa came to visit!



First day of pre school

First day of school? How can that be? We have been telling Evan that school is starting soon and he then asks if he can go right now, no matter what day or time. When he finally started, we'd ask what he did in school and every time it's "Nuffin'". Then a few days later he'll sing a song we've never heard before. He's also learned a blessing before eating. So far, it's money well spent.

Labor Day festival



I just had to put both the picture and the video just to show how much he liked it.






We went to the annual Labor Day festival called Last Fling. They had some new things to do. The police car was like a magnet to our young man. He went on this ride a couple of times because he liked it so much.

Summer happenings

This was Evan's second time to Arlington Park but I don't think he remembers the first time. Seeing the horses race didn't seem to register as much as the ambulance that follows the race or seeing a horse up close go poops. Those two things got a much bigger response.





So...Daddy may have splurged a little for this toy but he got a great deal at a garage sale and the young man really likes it.

Growing up

Our little boy is growing up. We recently gave up afternoon naps. Mommy and Daddy weren't as sad as they thought they'd be because it came down to napping and staying up all night or skipping a nap and going to bed at a decent time. Not hard to guess what we chose. This is how Evan has been sleeping lately. One day he said he wanted to sleep on the floor and this is how it's been for a couple of months now. Another change is one day he started calling up Mama and Dada, who knows why.
