Looking Down on My Sweet Boy

Entertain Me, Mother!

On a particularly LONG afternoon this week, I got all my pots and pans out for Everett to play around with. Since he is going to be a chef for Halloween, he used this playtime to help him get into character.

This is classic Everett....the crouch.

To The Batcave!

Extreme Makeover

We took Everett for his first haircut today. We went to Lollilocks - a salon just for kids. It was very cute and Everett did so well. He sat still and actually seemed to enjoy it. He had a big smile on his face and I had tears in my eyes.

Goodbye Curls!

Flying Solo!

Big boy Everett can do the slide by himself at the park now! He loves it. The static electricity is awful though and Mommy and Daddy don't want to touch him when he comes to the bottom because of the giant shock. His hair does a nice "mad scientist" thing!

Week in Review

Life has been a little hectic lately. Billy was out of town at the National Medical Examiners Conference for 6 days so it was just me and the little guy. He was very good and we had a blast all week. He is doing so much talking these days. His vocabulary includes: mama, dada, milk, water, hi, bye, clicker, cookie, car, box, ball, in, out, up, down, more, dog, night-night, and "goooood" which is his word for "food". It's amazing to see the new skills he is learning everyday. He can now open every door in our house, climb down the stairs and furniture backwards, stack blocks, and shake his head "no" (which, of course, he does for everything!)
Here are some photos from his antics this week....

Everett loves playing in the pantry. He opens the door and walks in by himself and then empties the lower shelves.

This is how he stops the paparazzi.

He pulled the cookie sheets out of the drawer below the oven and then climbed into the drawer. He was a little unsure as what to do next.

As I was cleaning up after lunch, I looked up to see Everett "hiding". Of course I called out, "Where's Everett?" and he reappeared. It was adorable the first few times, but now he has to do it at EVERY meal!
