I was packing up for our last trip to the lake for the summer and I guess Calvin thought he was going to be left behind and wanted to stow away. Out went Noah's clothes and in went Cal.
We brought some friends to the lake with us. Here is Noah and a buddy fishing :)
Ryan taught Noah to hold his mouth right so that he would catch some fish. It made us laugh.
Cal loved the baby pool!
Calvin read "A Thousand Splendid Suns" over Labor Day weekend. I tried to get him to read something a little lighter, like "Go Dog's Go" but he is captivated by the plight of the Afghan women.
Daddy was the hero and caught Noah some grasshoppers for his bug box.
Ok, a bunch of these pics loaded sideways and I'm way too lazy to fix it...sorry. It's taken me weeks to get them up and it would take me another few weeks to flip them all...
Noah found a bug in the paddle boat and it is firmly held in his right hand.
Getting ready for his first day of "school." It's really Kid's Day Out, but we won't tell.
First day of school breakfast, chocolate chip pancakes with sprinkes!
All ready to go! Noah loves school and is doing great, except for his refusal to stay on his mat during rest time. We have been working on it at home, we'll see what happens on Thursday. When I dropped him off last week, his second time, as soon as the door open he just ran in, no goodbye or anything. I guess that's a good sign. :) He is also playing soccer, I should probably use quotation marks around that too, lol. He goes straight from KDO to a Happy Feet program. He seems to love it and has started throwing balls and kicking them all over the house, which wasn't much of an interest before.
So we decided that maybe, just maybe it was time for a haircut. Cal did great! He giggled and had a good time. This is a sharp contrast to Noah's first haircut!
Ta-Dah! Beautiful.
Calvin has turned into a blanket kid, he goes and pulls his blankets through the bars of his crib and carries them all over the house. He snuggles with them, it's so cute. He also loves balls, he walks around all day saying "ball...ball...ball..." He likes to drop them and say 'Uh-oh!' and then go get them and repeat the process. He is a pretty wonderful little guy!
