No T.V. & a Face Plant, Oh Dear!

Lots of excitement for the little man this week. We went to the library. We brought Princess P to the Dr. Lil' T was totally showing off while we were there. We started a no T.V. campaign for the little man to try and improve upon some of his undesirable behaviors. We went 3 days without any T.V. and today he only had a little when he showed G-Auntie Joyce & G-Uncle Andy all his dance moves with Just Dance. I think the lack of T.V. has had a positive impact so far. He is still a crazy 3 year old, who I love to pieces but drives me absolutely crazy! He knows exactly how to push my buttons these days. During our T.V. free days we had one nice day and 3 days of rain and clouds. On the nice day we hiked at Beaver Brook. Lil' T went "fishing". Despite the yucky weather, Lil' T would venture out into our yard to pick cherries (not quite ripe yet) or play on his playground. One day he went out the door and down the steps too fast and did a face plant. He only cried briefly so I didn't realize how much he scraped himself until he walked in the front door (one of his favorite things is to lap the house, back door to front door). Luckily he missed his eye and didn't hit his head too hard. He was a good sport about icing it and cleaning it. It looks so much better now, thank goodness! The last big thing of the week is that Lil' T now has a roomate at night time. Princess P has been sleeping in her crib in Lil' T's room for the past 4 nights and they are both doing really well with it! Before I share some photos here are a couple of Lil' T quotes from the week: "That's my favorite" (he would say this about every article that he helped me unpack from the grocery bags this morning, one thing was jarred garlic) and the other quote from today "Your collection is impressive" (he said this to Ry when they were playing with his Domino set). This kid is a character, that is for sure! Oh and we have a resident doe and her baby in our yard. We have spotted them twice now, very cool! The baby is tiny. Okay enough from me here are the photos for your enjoyment!

Showing off his "boo, boos", concrete steps: 1, Lil' T: 0 :(

Our grass is so long it's good for surfing with a juice pop in hand of course!:)

Big hugs for Princess P

Walking the rail trail from Pepperell to Groton (we had to stop to throw rocks in the river!)

"playing" dominoes with Auntie Lisa, G-Auntie Joyce & G-Uncle Andrew (he was ordering them all around and telling them to build different structures with them).

Our resident Doe with her baby nursing (the photo was blurry so I made it look like a painting, I wish I had a longer lens for my camera!).
