Fall weather means fun days as their is so much festivities to look forward to. Dried leaves, winds, dirt, fruit, and ticks, I mean come on! Who doesn't like parasites? Our fall started with a lovely trip to a Renascence fair (did I get the word right?). Lucian loved the costumes, shows, food, and games. He did not like an audience screaming at falcons flying through hoops. He he, funny story there. We also took advantage of the wind as you can see and flew kites. It would not be his first time! We do it as often as possible as windy and sunny days usually to not come together. Near the middle of the season we picked pumpkins and raspberries. This time when we went it was apple picking time. It was very fruitful. It took the three of us about six minutes to nab twenty pounds. It is easy to say that this kid is an outdoors man like his parents. He loves to dig in the dirt, swim in the creeks, and pick at wildlife. Sometimes bring them home too ( :( ). As the days grow shorter, we find new ways to stay busy. For the holidays, we bought him this wicked out door play thingy. I cleaned it off and it now is in the living room for his winter enjoyment. Other than that, we sleep! Well, by "we" I mean him and the cat. I try to squeeze in but jeez, they are bed hogs. If you have any request for snow activities feel free to let us know. We are always looking for an adventure!
He has really picked up on "Peek-a-boo". He not only knows the game, but plays it on you! He hides behind mommy and sneeks his head around the left side, then upon your discovery, he peeks his head around the right side of her! When we shop, we do not use carts, but bring his wagon in and use that as a shopping cart. The stores do not seem to care, and it keeps him from tearing things of the shelves. On time in Micheals, we forgot the wagon, so he wanted to use a basket. The best part is, it was somebody elses! They seem to left a basket of stamps at the end of an isle. So Lucian jacked it and dragged it around, eventually crawling into it. Don't leave your things unattended, their are crazy people out there. ;)
