"Love gardening on a warm day, long walks, puppy dogs."

The green can, so simple, makes the baby so happy. We use it to water the Rocco Memorial Flower Patch, coming along nicely. Also to occasionally power the toy water wheel, evocative of the official Children's Fairyland water wheel, visited often.

Still lots of baby talk--eats a cold blueberry "Ees cold!" Turns out light "Ees dahk!" and always everything in the third person "Nate turns out the light."

So excited about starting school in a few weeks, babysitting swaps with a couple of pals across the lake (still never left awake with anyone while we go out!) and perhaps a trip to visit Grandma in MI soon!
