Miscellaneous

Lucas has begun to show a very active imagination. Here is one example. He is playing "dinosaur baseball." If you look carefully, you can see dinosaurs lined up at home plate (by Lucas), pitcher's mound (directly in front of him), and second and third bases. First base is out of view in this photo. Since the baseball playoffs have begun, he has gotten even more intense in his imaginary baseball play, but now he pretends to be the Texas Rangers and leaves the dinos out of it.



Here are the boys, along with their friends Jude, Jonas, and Sydney, at a recent dinner party we attended with two other families. The kids all know each other from soccer, and it was really nice to have adult conversations with our friends (the other parents) while the kids entertained each other.



After dinner, they discovered Sydney and Jonas's costume closet, and it was all over after that.



Lucas never got back out of the Spiderman costume. He even came home in it.



He spent the whole next day in the Spiderman hood as well. Watching TV through the eye holes, eating by lifting up the bottom -- nothing made him feel like he should just take it off. Bet you can't guess what he is going to be for Halloween.

For this last picture, I quote my friend Jen Weiers. "Just when you think your kid can't get any cuter, along comes footed pajama season." Indeed!



He LOVES his footies and wears them every chance he gets!
