August Update

The boy continues to just amaze me. He is so much fun to hang out with, although sorta tiring too now with all the running around. He is just SO happy with himself most of the time it's fun to watch. He runs around & looks back at me with a sh#t eating grin, then takes off again. He is all over the different climbing structures in the playground - never mind that he can't actually negotiate half of them. He is Fearless!!!


He now calls Mabel by her real name most of the time -- separating out the syllables May-Belle - very adorable. He is still signing every time he sees or hears a motorcycle, although he has begun to sign motorcycle for other cool vehicles like large loud trucks, school buses and fire engines.


I am going to need to find some classes to put us into to keep us busy as we come to the end of summer - maybe a music class and swimming at the Y again. Making trips to two or three different parks each day is wearing a tad thin! He still travels pretty well - we did alright on the short flights to DC and back and he did good driving to the Cape and the Shire ... We'll see how he does for a west coast jaunt in October - I'm a bit concerned for that long of a flight, but maybe we'll be lucky.


We've made a few more trips to the Boston Kid Haunts - the Zoo, the Children's Museum & the Science Museum - he seems to "get" more each time we go & to find new things to enjoy. I need to look into memberships for either the kids or science museum I think. I am also going to try and pick some more in "boston" proper adventures for us - he is doing good on the bus & has pretty much given up his morning nap so I feel like we can try am outings over the next couple of months.


Well that's it for now... except here is a picture
