Apparently Oscar gets the whole "time-out" thing...he regularly puts himself in time-out (complete with little whimpers and whines) when I tell him NO!

Here is a classic scenario...Gordon was sent to time-out for tackling Oscar and making him cry. In the confusion of who was in trouble (since O did quickly smack Gordon in the back as he was leaving the crime scene) Oscar speedily went and joined him!


Is it just me--or does this time-out look like too much fun?

Gordon's a fish...

Gordon had a love/hate relationship with swim lessons this year! When he was there he had a BLAST and was so excited and happy to be in the water...but every morning we got ready to go he always said he didn't want to go. He always tried to convince me that his teacher didn't like him anymore...and of course after being asked why he thought that he quickly replied, "She always makes me stay on the wall when I just want to swim!" I guess being the youngest kid in his class was a little hard on him...the child next closest in age just turned 5 (Gordon is still 3). We'll probably sign up for the eel class again because he is still so young but find a smaller class so the wait time between turns isn't so hard!

The Crazy Man Face!

Here is is to behold and enjoy!

Oscar's First Ice Cream Cone!


...really it seems odd but true... this is Oscar's first cone of his own!
Let's just say he LOVED it! He had the best chocolate mustache after but wouldn't stop making a crazy man smile face so I could get a picture to do it justice!
