Family Carnival

John's school had Family Carnivel today to say goodbye to summer. John got a dog painted on his face, a smiley face on his hand, and he filled an elephant up with sand and wore it around his neck. There was a dunking booth that John thought was hysterical. He tried three times and wasn't able to dunk the owner of the school. Someone else did dunk him and John got wet and loved it! There were some games he played and he won some tickets and got a prize when he left. All three of us had fun!

Naptime

John started going to school all day this week. He goes to sleep easily there and sleeps for about 2 hours. He stayed home with me today and I thought and hoped that he would nap easily for me. Instead, he went around his room collecting every stuffed animal and bringing them to his bed. He was very happy!

The Sandman finally got the best of him.

Snack Time

Snack time...mmm... hummus is good!


All finished.. time to clean the hummus off of John's hands.

Now on to pudding... mmm... that's good too! (He only had 2 bites of pudding.)

John's Summer Adventures

John and I recently visited New Orleans. After John and his Nanny got their eyes checked at the Children's Museum, they found they both needed glasses. Don't they look cute?

John put his face in the bubbles. I can't imagine that they tasted good.

The most fun that John had at the Children's Museum was in the grocery store. He put 3 gallons of Blue Bell ice cream in his basket, a giant lobster, 2 huge fish, a box of something and a whole chicken. He was selective in what he wanted and very funny!

John very much enjoyed a strawberry snoball. Mmm Mmm good!

He was red all over and gleefully happy.

We went to visit our Poppy. This is a picture of John and his great grandfather.

John was conversing with his MiMi.

He played in the hose with his cousins at his Lita's house. Playing in the hose is one of his favorite things to do!

He decided that he does like the pool. He had fun in the kiddie pool near our house. He found a pail and was entertained with filling it up and dumping out the water.
