Rag = Hat

He loves to carefully stack washrags on his head and keep them there as long as possible while saying, "Hat. Hat." Luckily he knows where to go to get the CLEAN ones.





Then when he gets tired of putting them on his head, he'll put them on my head.






Random story that has nothing to do with the above pictures: Nathan was putting Deacon to bed tonight and Deacon kept calling out (what sounded like), "Fan! Fan! Fan!". We do have a fan in his room, but it was already on. So Nathan tries to get him to get in bed and he keeps pointing at the bed saying, "Fan! Fan!" Nathan looks under the bed and there is Deacon's favorite board book called "Friends." He gives it to Deac and Deac snuggles up with it in bed and says contently, "Fan!" (Which now sounds a lot more like friend). Some little kids like to go to bed with a teddy bear, but the last few months we've had to put him down with a book. He'll call out, "buh, buh" which is book. Then, when I go check on him a few hours later I end up taking the book out of his bed because he is usually sleeping on the hard book like a pillow.
Deacon was doing this weird breakdance pose on the table during dinner and then stopped. So I said, "Do it again!" Then he kept doing this:
Standing up and putting his hands high above his head.


(I finally did get him to recreate the break dance move):

Just in case you missed it earlier, I had to post it again Ü

Deacon is OBSESSED with the treadmill. He's pretty smart too:



Can you hear him ask for my lap at the end? Ü

Deacon discovered his pockets and kept his hands in there right up until he biffed it and face planted in the pasture.
