E loves to be outside. If it were up to him, we would stay outside from the time we get up until time for bed. He also loves his dog, or "dah" as he says, Maddie. So taking Maddie to the park to play one evening was a big hit! If you know Maddie, you know that she isn't the calmest of animals, so we very rarely take her places like the park. She gets so excited when she sees other people and animals, and she pulls whoever is leading her and tries to jump on people. But we decided to give it another try and take her with us to a nearby park one evening. Much to our surprise, so stayed relatively calm and listened to J's commands very well. She went for a walk around the trail, then she enjoyed watching E swing. And he enjoyed having her there with him!
While we waited as long as possible to clip his cute little curls, when his hair started getting in his eyes, we knew it was time. But before you start worrying that we clipped ALL of his curls, let me assure you that we did no such thing. All of the curls in the back are still intact!
We took him to the beauty shop where Mommy and Meowmaw get their hair cut. Ms. A did a wonderful job. He didn't know what to think of the big chair, and he tried to push the scissors away a time or two, but for the most part, he was a wonderful client. And the end result: of course an adorable little boy!
DLast Thursday, we went to the park to eat lunch and play. While we were there, we went for a little walk and encountered some ducks. E was very fascinated by them. He greeted them with a cute little "hi" and watched them until they escaped into the water. Nap time was drawing near, so I told E that it was time to say, "Bye, bye, Ducks!" and head home to rest. He started to wave and said, "Bye Dudts." And he continued saying it all the way to the car. Unfortunately, this was one of the few times we have gone to the park without the camera, so I was unable to capture his initial duck encounter.
However, since he enjoyed it so much, we decided to take Daddy back that evening to show him the ducks. This time we remembered the camera! When we first arrived, we saw a momma duck with her babies. They were swimming everywhere. E thought they were so cute! Then we walked on over to the place where we had played with the ducks earlier in the day. This time he really started chasing them. It was so funny!
Yes, this would be a picture of the "duts" running from him.
Look, there they go!
Hey! Come back duts!
