Trigger Finger

A few weeks ago, I was cooking and gave Nolan a little spray bottle of water to play with. He was never able to figure out how it worked before, but I’d say he has gotten the hang of it now. :) He sat there spraying himself in the face over and over until the bottle was empty, and just thought it was hilarious. Remarkably, his clothes hardly got wet at all… not sure I can say the same for his daddy, though!

Look close and you can see that mouthful of teeth, molars, canines and all!

Just a few new pictures of our goofy little guy, being busy.

We’ve made quite a few trips to the playground this past week, and Nolan is starting to get the hang of it. He seems to be having fun, although he is always so solemn in new situations. He likes to watch the ground sliding back and forth under his feet in the swing.

His favorite activity at the playground has quickly become climbing up and down the stairs. They are nearly too big for him to climb without some assistance, but that doesn’t seem to bother him at all.

Daddy distracted the dog by playing fetch at top speed while I did some stair-climbing with Nolan. She played herself almost to exhaustion, and collapsed in the shade, while Nolan kept tabs on her. He is very fond of holding her leash from the stroller when we’re all out walking, and took the opportunity to wrangle her here too.
