Miscommunication

A while ago, Chomper started saying Daddy and we were so excited! Then I noticed that he also called the cats Daddy... and the computer monitor. So we had to admit that he might not know what the word means. Then he started pointing to the cats and saying cat! More excitement! Until he pointed to Daddy and said cat. Oh well... he'll figure it out eventually, right?

Communication

Not only is Chomper starting to understand us and do what we ask, he also uses sign language on occasion. Here he's asking me to play the toy "more" (tapping his hands together).

Garage Sales

Chomper and I go garage sale hunting on Friday and Saturday mornings. It's something to do, and I love a bargain. This toy is our best find so far. It is a shape sorter with an opening to pull the shapes out. Chomper can play with it forever putting the shapes in and out and in and out... best of all, it was only a quarter!

No More Storytime


This was the last week of storytime for the summer, but Chomper wasn't able to go. His legs have been covered with a rash since Sunday. We're not sure what it's from, but thankfully it's starting to fade!

If you click on the picture to make it big, you can see all his spots. Poor guy!

13 Months

Today it is gorgeous outside. Hot but not humid! Here's Chomper showing off on the porch.

Balloons

Chomper loves balloons (or, as he calls them, bah-oooo). He enjoys the balloons we get from the Red Robin. This one is leftover from his birthday, and he still finds it great!
