Shane insisted on wear his hat neither forward or backward this morning. "We'll see how long it lasts when sit in the car and can't lean your head back on the seat," I said.
He tried for about three seconds and then discarded it. I was curious if he'd remember when we got to VBS, but it remained forgotten.
It's been a fun week. Shane started off anti-VBS and I caught him panting with excitement about something when I picked him up today.
I got him to pose with his new VBS shirt. Carrie picked it up and dropped it off on Wednesday while I was at putt-putt with the youth.
We came home to a big surprise. Mommy wasn't home. Neither was most of the junk on our side porch! She was on her second dump run of the day.
Shane acted excited, but I was the one who really appreciated it! We worked on cleaning up dishes and around the house to show our gratitude.
I took Shane to Greenleaf park to meet up with Sam's family in the afternoon.
There were trees. Shane's motto is "gotta climb them all."
ALL of them.
He's good at it, too.
Sam's family was late, so Shane climbed to his heart's content. Carrie's going to hate these pictures.
Same showed up after not too long. He's not into climbing. Shane wanted to brag from the treetops, but I called him down.
The two of them jogged straight off to the spray park together.
I'd forgotten to have Shane change into a swimsuit before we came.
It was plenty hot out, though.
He'd dry in no time.
I took a lot of action shots as the kids ran around.
They enjoyed experimenting with increasing water pressure.
Shane laid down on the sidewalk to dry off.
When Sam inquired, Shane pulled him down and started to wrestle. Shane's an incredibly physical kid. He's not violent. He just seems to crave physical contact.
That and climbing trees.
Sam had no interest in the climbing. He enjoyed the playground equipment much more.
Unrelated to the whirly-go-round (yet my next picture), Shane managed to trip over his own two feet on concrete. He skinned both his knees including re-skinning away one scab for the third time in less than two weeks (maybe it'll be scar at this point).
Shane, Sam, and Toby finished the day by exploring all over the grounds.
Which worked for Kate (Sam's mom) and me. The boys dried off in the heat before we called it quits.
We spent over two hours out in the heat. I bet all the boys slept soundly!
