Blueberry Muffins.

Last night we made blueberry muffins and this morning while Simon and I were in the back watching the birds and clouds I gave Simon a bite of mine to see if he liked it. Simon LOVE LOVE LOVED the muffin. In short order I was begged for more and finally just handed him what was left, about half a muffin. It was intense... he loved it so he squeezed it but then he kept dropping crumbs (unacceptable!) so he'd lean over to pick up the crumbs and pop them into his mouth. A couple rocks accidentally got included in the cleanup effort. Those weren't as good though, so were spit out with great fanfare (so sad I didn't get that face on film!).

3 Years...

Thanks so much, Jenn and Colleen and Simon. What an amazing present. We love it!

Simon loves bananas.

In case you did not know, Simon loves bananas. It's the only food word he can say and is 
something he requests multiple times a day. We do try to limit to one banana a day, though 
are not always successful. He has even resorted to begging for bananas at the park... What 
adult can resist a sweet little kid toddling up to you and asking for a bite of your banana? 

This is how you eat a banana ...

Kohl's

Getting new clothes at Kohl's with Aunt Amy on Sunday... Obviously the cart was by far the best part - he got to face forward! The stop was important because it's suddenly cold and we had no pants, only  shorts, that fit the big kid. Unfortunately sizing is hard, it jumps from 12 to 18 and he's 15 months old, so get bigger, right?.... we got him size 18 month pants that are WAY too big. We'll be going shopping again this coming up weekend for 12 month sizes. 

Our little Toddler

Aunt Kathy Visit!

Aunt Kathy came to visit this weekend and Simon loved her! I'm sure it has nothing to do with Kathy bribing him with french fries when we all went out for lunch. They spent lots of time making faces at each other and playing with the awesome new car puzzle that Aunt Kathy got for Simon. For the past day he has constantly had two of the cars in his hands, walking or sitting. And when you show him the 3rd car, he'll happily switch one out so long as he keeps at least two. He likes banging them together to make a loud noise and sliding them along the floor, but doesn't like having the pieces in the puzzle.

Here are some pictures of Simon playing with Kathy...

I like melon.
