Halloween Story Time

Mimi took David to his Halloween story time yesterday.  When we asked how he liked it he replied, "I had cupcakes!"  It must have been a good time then.

kids in their costumes... can you find our firefighter?

2 Years 5 months

Today David turns two years and five months old.  It also happens to be Angie's 36th birthday today.  Her best gift, being home with David today. 
When he woke this morning Angie mentioned she was going to pull out David's clothes for the day.  He immediately said he wanted his car carrier shirt.  So car carrier shirt it was.  David has opinions on most everything now including what he wears.
David is very into the movie Cars, but his absolute favorite thing is Fireman Sam.  He can surf YouTube for long periods of time looking for a new Fireman Sam.
We are enjoying David more and more each day, but just this week he is beginning to show us his strong opinions when we are not doing exactly as he requests.  He is learning he does not always get what he wants... let's just say it is a hard lesson for Mommy and David.
Happy 29 month birthday our love!

The Best

David and Mommy days are the best, especially when the weather is gorgeous.  Oh how we love him!

And yes, he is wearing his lunch on the corners of his mouth.

Riverfest

We enjoyed another great evening at our church.  Tonight was Riverfest, new name after over a decade as Hallelujah Hoedown.  David enjoyed playing the games and getting "surprises."  We all enjoyed a hayride, petting zoo, the costume parade, and seeing friends and coworkers we were not expecting to see.  We are blessed to have a church home that we love as much as we love Riverbend!  Here is our night in pictures.
David was adamant that he did not want his hat.  Daddy thought it was too hot to zip and button David's jacket so hopefully by Halloween we can have all of the pieces in place for his costume!

Park Discovery

Yesterday after story time and before Chick-Fil-A Mimi and David discovered a fun new park in Georgetown.  They had a very full morning, but it looks and sounds like they had a great time together.
Here are a few pictures Mimi sent us of David at this great new park!

Dinner and a Movie

When you are an only child you seem to rule... David's dinner was enjoyed bundled up on the couch watching Fireman Sam on Daddy's IPad.  What a life he leads:)

To the City

Mimi and Grandpa Ed took David on the ride of his life last week.  They rode the light rail, which David calls the train, into the city.  Their destination was the Children's Museum, however David would have been just as happy with the train ride.  He has talked and talked about the train and the tracks.  He will sometimes say, " Mommy or Daddy next time you can ride the train with me."  This will have to make it on our list of things to do too!  Thanks Mimi and Ed for such an exciting adventure for our little guy!

All Aboard!!
