Crafty PlayDate

We went to the Library this morning to meet our play group. The kids did Halloween crafts and afterwards chased each other around the room. One of the mom's brought in a couple of books and that calmed the kiddos down for a few minutes. As we were leaving the parking lot Isaac said "more please, mom." He wanted more playtime with his friends.

Pugs

We went to the Athens area pug meet and greet this afternoon with our doggies. Isaac was fascinated while Rascal and Quincy loved mingling with other pugs. Photos here of Isaac walking Quincy and a close up of Donavan, Isaac with the pugs from a group shot of all the pug owners.

Vacuum

After watching me vacuum this morning Isaac decided the upper compartment of his toy chest needed to be cleaned. One by one he threw all of the balls onto the floor and preceded to vacuum, however we had to urge him to put all of the balls back into their home.

Go Dawgs!

Bike Ride

It was a cool morning so we headed out for a bike ride.

September 26 Chuckee Cheese

Donavan took Isaac to dinner and games at Chuckee Cheese while I went bowling/dinner with some mom friends. It looks like they had a great time!

September 25 Cousins

I showed Isaac the blog this morning he wanted to see pictures of his cousins, the "bebes." We love the plaid on Ella and Emerson!

September 23 Muffin Man

Our theme in Kindermusik this fall is Cookies and Milk. We decided to make some banana muffins and listen to the "muffin man" on Isaac's CD after school today. Isaac really enjoyed spooning the batter into the mini muffin pans.

September 19 St. Joseph's School Fall Festival

Isaac and I went to St. Joeseph's School first fall festival. We met our friends Diana and Isaac Werling there. I didn't get any photos of the boys playing the games, but fishing and soccer shootout were Isaac's favorites. He caught a lot of "dee" (candy) and the sunglasses you'll find in the photo. After games we had a hot dog lunch and came home for naptime. After nap Isaac went over to play and have dinner with Mary, Alexis and Isabelle. I returned to the school for the silent auction and spaghetti dinner. Isaac loves playing in Alexis' castle and is fascinated with Isabelle "bebe bella."

September 17, 2008 Bishop Park

We met our playgroup at Bishop Park today. Isaac was determined to take his John Deere "dump truck" with him. I had a long conversation with his the entire way to the park about sharing the truck. He's still a little too young to understand that concept, but he actually did better than expected. By the end of the play date he enjoyed having Ryan and Connor play with the truck and mulch.

September 18 Circus

We rarely make spur of the moment plans in our house. Today we did. Tonight we went to the Cole Bros. Circus in Watkinsville. We met our friends, Melissa, Richard, Ella and Nora there and had a blast. Camels, elephants, ponies, clowns, trapeze artists, motorcycles--it was a family fun event. I didn't know what to expect and found Isaac mesmorized by the entire scene. Ella hopped on the camel AND pony for a ride, but Isaac was a bit more timid. He did insist on having his face painted before we left. ROAR. Donavan enjoyed the fair food--funnel cake was his favorite. I've decided that we live a very low risk life.
