Momma wasn’t around here, so there is no confirmation of this frame, although it’s obviously ending in a strike! Daddy and his boy went bowling with some other men from church (some of whom also had children). What a nice, wholesome male bonding experience!
While he has not yet perfect the art of a completed circuit, the Boy has mastered connecting tracks end to end. He runs the trains up and down for hours. We’re hoping to get more, and fancier, tracks to stimulate his creativity further.
The Boy, like many other children, loves his spaghetti. While it normally requires an immediate post-dinner bath, it’s worth seeing the Boy scarf down veggie laden sauce and corn on the cob.
The Boy is obsessed with trains. Ideally, all trains should be of the Thomas variety, but in their absence, classic wooden trains are just as magnificent. (Even better are Thomas trains that work WITH wooden trains, but we don’t have any of those). Here you can see the boy playing with the train tracks Erin has for when small children (especially the adorable little offspring of close friends) come to visit. He spent all weekend playing with those trains!
It’s so rare to capture a good smile these days – the Boy is usually on the run and hard to catch!
The Boy, rocking a hat sent by Poppy & Gumbo upon their return to the states. He wears it often and quite well!
The Boy is quite mad here – Daddy won’t share the bucket of blueberries! Never mind that every time the Boy got a hold of the bucket, he spilled berries all over the ground, and what he didn’t spill, he shoved into his mouth by handfuls. Such a mean, mean Daddy.
