A little of this and a little of that

This is a random post about some of the things that Josh and mom do while daddy is at work. There also a couple of pictures of some other things.

See what happens when you leave Josh to color my himself for just one minute. His body becomes a work of art.

Dad found the praying mantis while mowing. Josh thought it was pretty cool.

We try to do some kind of "art project" a couple times a week. This particular day we made a tambourine and maracas. The was followed by an hour of "marching to the drum" as Josh calls it. He even had grandma P march to the drum in her wheelchair.

On one of the few HOT days of the summer, Josh and I went to the Greenwood pool to splash around in the kiddie pool.

Josh likes to play with his Lincoln Logs. He likes to make a car wash or garage and play with his cars.

We went to Muscatatuck NWR birdwatching and brought bacon sandwiches for our picnic. Yum, Yum!

Josh is really getting into birdwatching now a days. We are trying to teach him how to use binoculars. When he actually finds what he looking for he points to it and says "Here it is!" He loves to see what other kinds of animals we can find. Sometimes that include a T-Rex or a triceratops. You never know what you might find in the woods.

There really isn't to much going on around the house right now. In two weeks we are going on our first camping trip in the new camper. The destination has yet to be determined. Matt is off the next couple of days, so we are going to enjoy this holiday weekend. We do plan to do a little fishing in grandma and grandpa's back yard. That will be a lot of fun!

Not to jinx us - but we do seem to be potty trained. He only wears diapers to sleep in and is really good at letting us know when he has to go. We've only had a couple accidents in the past month and a half and those were because we just didn't make it to the bathroom in time. SOOOO, sometimes when we're outside playing and he says he has to pee, we just go over to a tree. THE PERKS OF HAVING A BOY!!!!
