Getting very good at climbing up the stairs, but pretty much stays at the top
Sometimes we play on the drums, but not actually play them
Goofing with Liam during his birthday lunch
Playing with Liam’s new remote control dinosaur robot (yes, apparently that’s a thing)
Running away from said remote control dinosaur robot. But to be fair, the dinosaur robot clearly appears to be in a predatory stance.
Still going to check it out anyway. And we heard him murmuring what we think he calls “dog”
Lunch with Des and Cal
Meeting Rod and Nora
Playing with Cassie
Mom and Des recreating a photo of mom and dad when they were first dating in 2003
Des investigating grandpa’s mouth
Losing a toe to Phyllis, Travis, and giggling
Ready for bed, curled up on mom
What’s more fun than playing with a remote control car? Pushing the remote across the floor.
Hung out with the Stokes early on Sunday, had to get the requisite shot of Des at the jellyfish
This was the first year we made it to Dundee Day, an annual festival in our neighborhood. We walked up and had pancakes and watched a (small) parade with friends. While some of Des’ older friends enjoyed the bounce houses, we just chilled with the other parents.
Everywhere we turned, more friends and families. There was also a farmers market and craft fair. We ended the day by grabbing a pizza at Dante’s mobile pizza oven and walking over to the community garden picnic tables.
Des likes picking clovers, right-side up or upside down.
New and improved – now with 50% more teeth!
Chatting with Darian
Whew, that was exhausting.
Dad got a remote control car for himself Des- fun for the whole family! He’s mesmerized, though Max isn’t quite into it.
Thursday afternoon was open house at Des’ daycare. It was nice to see him in his element and for snack time.
Apparently Des’ favorite spot is up in the kitchen. Lots to play with and sort.
Hey mom, what are you doing out there? Want a spoon?
It was time to go out in the big room and Des goes right for the stairs. Fearless.
Or maybe not- got all the way to the top stair and just stayed there for ten minutes 🙂
The tides might be slowing turning as Des appeared to enjoy the slide this time more than not.
