Splat














Isn't is amazing how closely kids watch their parents actions? Last week I saw a big fat fly on the window and decided to swat him against the window. Guess who was watching? Not more than 5 seconds later Nolan grabbed the spatula which was the closest thing he could find to a swatter and proceeded to also "kill a fly" like daddy. Funny stuff.

Elephant Tail







Nolan is a fan of sucking his thumb. He is pretty good about only sucking it if he has his blanket and is in bed but there are a few things that he will use as a substitute for his blanket. The tail of his stuffed elephant is one of those substitutes! He likes to pull elephant Horton around by it's tail or lay with him on the floor and roll around.

We also had a little drama here the other night when Nolan put his blanket into the bathtub before I had a chance to fully drain it. Spot the blanket was soaked and there was a very unhappy little boy because he couldn't have his blanket and mom had to go in search of another one from the laundry. Nolan kept trying to pull it down from the shower rod where I had hung it up to dry.
