Sunday funday

Today we had a fun day at our family friend's house again. It was Nancy's birthday so we went to her house to help her celebrate along with other family and friends. It was a hot, hot, hot day and we didn't even get there until 4:30! After about 20-30 minutes of walking around and playing on their blacktop driveway Donovan (and his supervisors) were so hot! We took Donovan's hat off and his hair was so sweaty it looked like he had just taken a bath. So we had some fun styling his sweaty hair and this was the result...note the red cheeks too!

I love this picture Tom snapped of Donovan. One of my recent favorites.
After playing in the front yard for a little while the big kids (Peyton (7 yo), Logan (6 yo) and Sophia (4yo)) decided to play in the slip'n'slide. We didn't bring any swim diapers or swim trunks so we put Donovan in the little bun huggers we had planned on using as his pjs on the way home. He thought the little "speedo" made him look cool and took the opportunity to flex for us as seen below. (OK really this picture was of Donovan catching himself stumbling but it looks like he is flexing and makes me giggle).
Donovan was not too keen on getting in the water. I think it was too cold for him but I had to dip him to clean him up after he emptied his bladder in his bun huggers. Sorry buddy.
Lisa, another family friend, was squirting a squirt gun and somehow thought it would be a good idea to let Donovan have a drink. He loved it!!!! He kept coming back for more and was drinking it like it was a bottle.


Then Sophia was getting squirted with the water gun and man did Donovan think that was hilarious. I will never get tired of his belly laughs.



On another note, Donovan has been all boy lately. Now that he is walking and running, he is tripping more and more. On Friday he skinned his knee and scrapped his leg outside and never even made a peep. Then today at the get-together he fell over a landscaping rock and cut his other knee, making it bleed, bit his lip later, making it bleed and right when we were winding down our night he tripped and hit his head big time on the driveway. We were standing about 20 feet away and heard the loud thump when he went down. Now those last three injuries he definitely cried through but he has more scrapes, bruises and bumps on his body now then he ever had and I don't even know when he got half of them. So he is definitely is our little man. He is going to have hair on his chest before we know it.
