Sunday with Aunt Laura

Alex and I had a great day with Laura and Brian today. Their church was having a festival, which was lots of fun. Alex loved the bounce house, games, and music. I had to drag him away from the band when it was time to go. He didn't know anyone there, but jumped right in and, after a while, was navigating the activities on his own. It was fun to see him exploring so independently. After a while, his bossy side came out, and he decided to help run some of the games, telling people where to stand and helping with mini-golf. 

Making sure everyone does it right.
Then we spent a couple of hours at Aunt Laura's, chasing rabbits in the back yard, looking for cicadas and acorns, and being a huge helper with back yard tasks. It's days like these that make me really wish we had a yard!

Moving the patio furniture. He insisted on doing it all by himself.

Helping with the first bird feeder.
