Deacon likes to crawl into the basket at the bottom of his stroller. The only problem is he gets stuck!

He did this right during Nathan's Sunday School lesson one week and the 14-15 year old youth thought it was hilarious. I kept hearing all about it the next hour in Young Women's group.

When Paige visited.

Back when Paige was here (waaaay back when), we visited Aunt Collette and her dogs.

And just like that, Paige was gone Ü

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

I was cleaning out some files and wadded up some trash paper. Nathan grabbed it and proceeded to turn Deacon into The Hunchback of Notre Dame (or maybe the Incredible Hulk?).

Deacon didn't care for it. He was like a dog trying to chase his own tail because he'd try to reach behind himself to get it and ended up going in a circle.

I Am Outing Deacon

I came around the corner, and look who has come out of the closet!
(notice the ever present spatula)

He climbed into the stroller while it was in the closet.

A different day. A different closet.
Where's Waldo?


This one he couldn't get out of himself. P.S. he is WAY over the weight limit for that swing....which is why I "hid" it in the closet! Do you see the stuff he had to climb over to get in there?

I opened the backdoor to check on the boys and this is what I saw:














He was so out, he didn't even know I was standing above him taking a picture.














Then I see our boy off in the distance:














Don't worry, if someone tries to kidnap him...he has a spatula to protect himself.














Okay. He's back. Dad never knew he was gone.

D is for Drawer....

As in KITCHEN Drawer

As in Deacon Digging in HIS Drawers!

(The former drawer is the where he finds the spatula)

I wish I had a video clip of this, but I think you can tell by his open mouth what he is doing.
He is screaming at the top of his lungs while beating his tools against my ball.
It was like some African Tribal dance.

Captain Deacon

We don't normally let him climb on the piano, but he was wearing his cape this day. We figured if he fell, then he could just fly to safety........

He put this T-shirt on by himself, but got his head through the arm hole instead.

Usually when things get quiet, it means trouble. But today I "caught" Deacon in the playroom reading to himself.

Deacon has been trying to dress himself lately....
with our clothes!

His favorite thing is to get into Nathan's laundry basket and try on all of his underwear---but I didn't get a picture of that ; )

Here he is trying to put his pants on (but on the wrong half of his body).

How Does He Do That?

Even a year later.....he's still sleeps in the same position he did in my belly!

A Day With Dad

Dad takes me to the park

He doesn't mind if I steal a shovel and bucket from other little kids.

Then we make pizza together!

A good day with dad!
