At the Playground!

The playground just down the street was renovated a couple of months ago.  The weather was mild today, so we decided to pop by to see what was going on.

Take me to the playground, parents!

Nice new playground

I enjoy staring at squirrels.

I WILL conquer the 5-12 year olds' equipment.

See?

Nice shot, daddy!

You're not going to let me go, are you?

Take me back to the slides, please!

 

Party Time

What's this thing on my head?

Gary's New Favorite Food

Is chili!  He had mommy's chili for dinner on Thursday and Friday, but that didn't stop him from eating Hard Times chili for lunch on Saturday!

The chili, Cincinnati style

Thanks for feeding me, daddy!

What's on that TV up there?

 

Delicious!

 

 

Bonus Picture

And here is a picture of Gary that mommy found on her phone, just because she thinks that Gary looks so grown up!

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you, Gary, for being a good boy today!

Thankful for cousins!

You're Doing It Wrong!

Perhaps Gary should be the new author of this Slate feature . . . .

 

Little Feet

Gary hasn't been satisfied with his own shoes recently and instead has been trying some larger shoes on for size:

 

Happy Halloween

Gary and his classmates originally were going to have a Halloween parade, but because of Sandy, they had a classroom party instead.  Here are some photos of Gary in his costume.

Rawr!

Stop looking at my tail!

Do tigers eat fish?

Superman looks tasty.

Superman wins!

PB&J!

Peanuts are one of mommy's favorite foods, so she is really happy that Gary loves his peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!

 

Fun with Leaves

Daddy had to work today, but mommy and Gary had a nice time (and two naps!) together.  Aunt Shannon and Cole came over, and we went to Los Tios for brunch.  We sat outside, and Gary and Cole had fun sharing autumn leaves with each other.  Later in the afternoon, mommy and Gary hung out in the backyard.  Here are pictures of Gary running around with a leaf from the fig tree!

 

 

 

Happy Birthday, Henry!

Gary had a blast at his cousin Henry's birthday party this weekend.  Here are some photos.

Sitting!

Scuba-ing!

Cruising (with some assistance
from daddy)!

Recovering!

 

Pulling Weeds!

Mommy and daddy decided to do a little work in the yard this weekend, mainly pulling up weeds that have taken over the flower beds.  Gary wanted to help, so he grabbed a trowel too!
