adam says, “aunt tina and uncle tom have the best toys at their house!”

they have silly socks to steal:

shoes to move:

(i’m not sure he understands why, after all of his hard work rearranging my shoes, they just end up where they started each time he comes in my room. he also doesn’t like it when tom’s shoes are in the tv room - they must be moved. shoe-keeping is never ending work.)

scenes from “bob the builder” come to life:

sombreros:

(ok, so this was actually at our friend’s party, but it still counts! we play with hats often. in this picture he has 3. count ‘em.)

boxes:

(there have also been sessions with pepsi, snapple, and boca meatless boxes.)

and, of course, the big cardboard tubes:

we sure do know how to keep a toddler entertained!

oooh cute. pudgy, chubby, sweet, and cute.
I think toy stores are a scam; kids much prefer fun stuff like shoes, keys, old cell phones, stuff like that. Audrey has two toilet paper rolls taped together like binoculars, and she won’t let us throw them away.

must! squish! cheeks!

Thanks Scrod for excavators! We have on down the street from the pre-school where I teach that has been keeping the tykes entertained for days! The construction workers seem to enjoy being treated like rock stars.

I know! the construction work keeps him very happy during meals. we just roll the high chair in front of the window and it’s like tv.

Sounds like Adam has been keeping you entertained and busy. What will you do when he leaves in a few days? (at least you’ll know where to find your shoes)

Who knew! We’ll be shipping Neil up soon! ;-)
