Evie at Fifteen Months
With my computer issues, it's hard to get to these posts, but I do take Evie's chair photos each month. I'll go back and add her stats and milestones later, just for her to have and read later. But for now, here are each month's photos. It's hard to not share when she's so cute. Sorry for clogging everyone's feed. ;)
A Story and a Slice
I took my little birdies to Denton yesterday. We went to Recycled Books and Records to get Sam his first reading reward for the summer. He chose an old Syd Hoff book, The Horse in Harry's Room and then the kids did their general running-around there, mostly in between the shelves in the reading nooks with the awesome green shag carpeting. We were all starving after playing around at the bookstore so it didn't take much convincing from Sam for me to make our next stop J&J's Pizza. They have a booth now, right by the big window, so of course, we had to sit there - great light!
After lunch we walked around the courthouse, as we always do, and Sam slid down the concrete staircase railings and chased squirrels around the lawn. We decided to pop into the old-fashioned candy shop, but just to look! Our last stop was a store called "Scrap Denton" where people can donate fabric, yarn, and other craft supplies they don't need so that people can purchase them inexpensively for whatever project they're working on. We found a tub of bottlecaps in between the wine corks and the random puzzle pieces, and since Sam has started a collection we had to grab some, especially at only 25 cents a handful! I grabbed a handful and counted them - about twenty - then put them back and told him to pick out his favorite twenty. He was excited to find one with a Texas! All that made for a busy afternoon for us, so we headed home for naptime, all of us (but especially Mama)
completely exhausted

Garage
reposting after a little color-fix...
We played in the garage this week - Sam, my camera and me.
Whoa.
I love the light in my garage, and the light in my garage loves Sam's blue eyes.
Look at those things.
Thank you garage, we'll see you again soon.
Library Time
We headed out to the Frisco library on our first day of summer. We saw two of Sam's preschool teachers there, too! We were all looking for some new titles for our library book baskets.
Let the summer reading begin!
Waiting
Sam in his room, playing on my phone while he waits for me to finish getting ready for the day. He decided to move his table the other day and create a little office area for himself by his bed. Each day he adds more treasures to his desktop display. He's very proud of it and has been working there quite a bit the last couple of days.
Rounding Third
Last t-ball practice of the season, rounding third, heading for home plate!
