Family at the park

Grandma and Grandpa came to visit and we all went to the park!

Photos here!

Drew is really fun

Yesterday Drew decided he wanted to try papa's shoes on - so he did. But he also likes to cruise around in his little Cars underpants. ha!

Fun on Father's Day

Here are some great shots from Father's Day. As you can see, Drew and Derek are very proud of their geek papa! First, at naptime, while Drew gets a story. Next two at brunch. Finally a fun one with Mama on the couch. For those interested in desktop-sized photos (Grandpa?), click on any of them for large versions. There are a few more over on Derek's Blog.

Drew at the park

Yesterday, Drew went for a little graduation party for his daycare pals, some of which are going to kindergarten this fall). Well, Drew had a lot of fun at the park! We couldn't keep up with him! Water, climbing wall, swings, food, oh my!

Drew is having fun!

Drew is changing in so many fun ways now. He's still loving his trains, and now Legos. He's enjoying interacting with his little brother, sometimes getting in his face and yelling "HI DEREK!" or imitating what Mama and Papa do by moving Derek's arms and legs around. Drew's vocabulary is increasing daily and he's getting to be quite a conversationalist. He's getting good at planning things. The nightly bedtime routine usually means Drew saying something like "Mama, I want to watch hockey and eat bear cookies instead of reading stories. And you sit with me here." He got some new shoes last night and liked them so much you'd think they had little rockets on them. He ran around the house for five minutes, non-stop! Currently, Drew is going through a little separation anxiety at bed time and when Papa has to leave for work, where he gets really sad. It's hard to see, but it's a reminder that he is growing through another phase of childhood. Drew will be 3 years old in just over a month. Time is flying by quickly and we're enjoying every minute of it. School, anyone?

Drew needs a new bed

...for all his stuff! He fits nicely in there now though...

Drew and balloons!

Drew loves his balloons! He sees them everywhere and immediately wants them!
