Play Till We Drop


I haven't been doing so hot these days, so Everett wants to spend more time with Curious George than me.  But I really tried to get out and expand his mind today.  We went to Imagination Avenue, the mall's indoor play area, came home and played, and had a picnic lunch. I then passed out as soon as I put him in his crib.  How long until Nov. 24th???  

While we were doing Play-Doh today, Everett kept repeating the directions I was saying to him in my exact same tone.  He is such a mimic!  He has been saying the funniest things lately.  One of our favorites is, "This happened".  He says this when something happens (ie. a train falls on the floor or he drops something).  He says it so matter-of-factly.  I also enjoy his new word "something".  He will come across the tiniest piece of paper on the floor and run it over to me, saying "I found something".  Or look under the bed and say, "Something's under there".  His "something" sounds like "humfing" so I guess you need to hear it to appreciate it.  He only needs to hear something once and it is in his vocabulary.  We have learned this the hard way.  I guess I should have known when he copied the sound "agoo" at 2 months old.  The boy likes to talk.

Everett did so amazing waiting his turn and weaving around the smaller kids at the mall.

He ACTUALLY posed for me!  He wanted to look at himself on the digital camera, so he allowed this photo.
