play some more. We went with Mimi and Bopaw (aka the Wellings) to the downtown aquarium. It was so much fun. Robert got to see a lot of interesting fish very close up. He came face to face with a huge grouper and got a little scared. He wasn't scared at all by the moray eel (which I thought was way creepier). He stood in front of it doing his eel impression(opening and closing his mouth.)
Robert is very into books right now, which makes me very happy. He brings us an endless stream of books to read. His favorite is "My Truck is Stuck" (thanks to the McKinneys) followed closely by "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish." We enjoy going to the library for the baby song/story/play time and to get new books. He is learning so much and loves to point things out to us in his books. We're working on learning his colors one at a time. He's got yellow down and now we're on to red.
Recently, Robert has realized that he can push boxes and things around so that he can reach things. He's pretty fearless when it comes to climbing. This has prompted Glenn to get serious about putting the plexiglass up to keep him from climbing over the wall in our upstairs gameroom.
Seen on our wall lately.
Robert loves to pick up leaves off the ground and try to put them back on the tree.
The new fun toy around our house is the slide/basketball goal. Robert likes to say "yes!" when he makes a goal. He likes climbing up the slide as much as down.

I absolutely love that first photo- it's so candid and happy and beautiful! I also love that Robert is into climbing things- a boy after my own heart! I grew up always climbing trees and on top of whatever I could, so perhaps he, too, is destined to be a rock climber some day. :) Hope you guys are staying safely away from Ike- I'm thinking of you!!
we have to see him, he is getting so big!
