Fall Festivities

OK, no excuses this time, we're just getting bad about blogging regularly. We're starting our 3rd trimester so I don't think our blogging frequency will improve much over the next few months. Here are some of the things we've been up to:

#1. Being Silly

Like Father/Like Son. Definitely his daddy's boy.

#2. Getting a Haircut

We finally took him to get a real haircut. The 1st 5 or 6 haircuts were done by mom and the last one didn't go so well. He did great...as long as we kept a sucker in his mouth and he got to watch daddy getting his haircut in the chair next to him.

#3. Going to the Fair

He has been to 3 fairs this yr including the State Fair in Dallas. Here is a shot at the Jackson County Fair in the BIG city of Edna:)

Not sure the goat was too thrilled, but he LOVES animals.

...especially horses.

He takes his horse handling skills very seriously...just in case you missed his facial expresion in both of these shots.

This fair had the biggest sand box we've ever seen (not counting the beach). Paw Paw took the time to share some of his farming skills with McB.

Here's a shot of McB and his big cousin cruising around in the boats at the fair. She picked the color of their boat. He's still not to sure about carnival rides. I think he made it one time around before we had to stop the ride and get him out. This picture was taken before it actually started moving.

#4 Being a Boy

He is getting more adventurous "dangerous" each day. Daddy encourages this as much as possible. Mama is slowly getting used to the idea.

Just about anything can be turned into something you can climb on or through or ride:)

Swinging is one of his favorite things to do right now...

...even if he has to create a swing of his own.

McB was trying to help his cousin swing higher. He got in trouble as soon as we got the picture taken. 1st things 1st!

I see an ER trip in the future if these two keep hanging out together. This makes mommy look like the worst babysitter in the world but it was lots of fun. The pictures look a little worse than it really was. McB's buddy got smart and decided to sit back and let him try the dangerous stuff first. It was soon back to seeing who could out-do the other going down the slide.

They are not even 2 yet;)

They eventualy settled down for some good ole Elmo entertainment.
