When naps attack

We have experienced one of the hottest summers in history. Well that i can remember anyway. you wouldn't think it was 110 degrees outside the day i took this photo in the middle of June, but it was. its just the air conditioner was on high power and being cool and still long enough makes for a great nap.

The days following. the same thing happened. it was 112 that day and we couldn't even play outside most of July. the house stayed very cool and dark. the electric bill was thru the roof, but hey....it was a HOT summer!

It was literally the dog days of summer all summer long. As we say goodbye to summer today we went from one extreme to another. 99 degrees just last Friday to a chilly 76 today. And the good thing is...we can play outside. we can expect a lower electric bill. and we can say....we survived the hottest summer in our history! HAPPY LABOR DAY!

LOOK! LISTEN!

He looks so big sitting on this little truck. The little truck that plays the most annoying music in the house. I am a weird mom! I refuse to remove any batteries from any toy that we buy him or that he receives as a gift. They are musical and educational and he loves to dance to the songs. So I will not take that from him....but its still annoying nonetheless.... Anyway...I am so proud of how fast he learns to do everything and that he is as independent as his little self can be. He loves to listen to the 2 songs on this little truck. Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Do You Know the Muffin Man are constantly playing. He is a big boy now. He isn't my little baby bundled up anymore......

He's making a list....

The BIG TOY BOOKS arrived in the newspaper a few weeks ago. Let's just say he knows how to catalog shop! He knew what pages to go to that had toys for him. Anything Spiderman is topping his list right now. He will sit and watch the Spiderman movie and not move. Not the cartoon either...the movie with Toby Maguire. He would come across the pages that had the barbies and doll houses and anything pink and point at them and yell "JESSIE!!" So I am glad he knows what she likes because she changes her mind every 5 minutes. We will be shopping soon and from the very worn out toy book he has carried with him for the past few weeks now. He points at 3 things every time he opens the book from Wal-Mart...so i know he means business. And the 50" flat screen that he points at and yells "DAAAADDDY" well sorry for your luck son.
