Bath time is now “copter” time, thanks great aunt Lori!
Year Two
A foggy start to Des’ birthday at the pumpkin patch
Tromping along with mom to find the perfect pumpkin
Presumably reflecting on the second year of his life, or contemplating the mass of mud on his shoes
Snacks with Liam and Viv
Not so thrilled about the stormtrooper
Swimming in corn, such happiness
Shaking the nap daze with grandma as the birthday party starts
Ask Desmond how old he’s going to be, the answer is “six!” However he knows the shape for “two,” so it may be starting to sink in…
CAKE! (with baby carrot)
Hammering on his new workbench
Dad demonstrating the mechanics of screws versus nails
Figuring out his new drill, saying “skeeze, skeeze” while squeezing the trigger 🙂

The birthday weekend continues with a trip to the zoo, Des is eager to get there
A young boy on the verge of two
Almost more interested in the pumpkin in the tank than the fish themselves, although it’s a good combo
Jamming on the keyboard at the park
Harvest 2016
Knowing we were going out to garden, he insisted on grabbing his bucket from the kitchen. After having watched dad model eating kale, he remembered and wanted in on the action.
Perhaps not totally happy with his adventurous decision, he at least kept it packed back in his cheeks until dinner.
Picking the two habaneros that ripened
And after visiting the one ripened squash many times over the summer, he was proud to carry it inside. Until he realized it was too heavy (even for him) and swapped dad for his bucket ‘o kale.
