Balloon Races

We may look tired but we made it!  We got up and watched the balloons fill and take off into the air.

This was Indy's favorite.

Kevin likes the Yoda and Darth Vadar balloons.

I just like watching my family have a nice morning together.

Look ma, glasses

Indy has a pair of play glasses from my old job.  He found them the other day in the toy box.  They are a little crooked but he looks darn cute in that button up with some specs.

Trick or treat practice

I found a smaller version of the plastic pumpkin buckets for Halloween.  I thought we would practice with fruit snacks so Indy knew what to do this year. We brought his little doorway into the living room and I would tell him to knock, then I said trick or treat and gave him a snack in his pumpkin.  He did not get it!  He would take the snack out and put it in a pile next to his bucket.  We will keep working.

Painting

I realized I haven't done many arts and crafts with Indy lately.  So, we went to the dollar store and Indy picked out a paint set, of course it was Frozen.

The kid may love trucks but Anna, Elsa, and Olaf are a close second!  

He may not be Picasso but he was very clean about the whole process.

Yep, mom gave me donuts

Kevin was out of town for a bachelor party and Indy and I had a great morning together.  We woke up and went grocery shopping and he actually helped.  He pushed the cart and only put in things I said okay to, except he added bacon and some craft singles, both of which I figured we could use.  He pushed the cart with some help and even helped load up the conveyor belt.  The girls at checkout loved him and he would get pretty silly when the pretty nagger would thank him for handing her a bag.

So, I let him have a thing of powdered donuts.  He grabbed them to his chest and would not let go.  

We have a pretty happy kid on our hands...or maybe it is all the sugar!

Boys doing some man's work

Zeppelin keeps getting into the trash so we finally had to install the permanent gate.  Kevin and Indy did some drilling and hammering together.  Kevin really kept his cool when things were not going smoothly.  I kept waiting for him to make me take Indy but he let him help the whole time even though it takes twice as long with Indy's "help".
