Gettin' Artsy

Stanley's post:
Any other 3 or 4 year olds out there feel like they're always being pressured to "draw" or "paint" a picture? Well, I've been giving it my best shot at school and at home, too.
This is me doing a little painting. I like to paint because you're allowed to use both hands.










Drawing is a little tougher because you kind of need to use just one hand at a time because the other hand has to put the crayon into your drawing hand and then hold the paper. It's a big job. Here are two drawings that I made of dinosaur eggs.
I was feeling pretty good, so I went on to draw this one a little later. It's a person and then there's a cross-out to say "don't hit in the head or step on the foot" - you know, of the person.
I've even been setting up some still life arrangements as well. Oh, you can't see the helium balloon - that was part of it. This one got dismantled before I'd really finished it. I had to go to school and I needed my shoe so . . .

Trick 'R Treatin'

This year for Halloween, I was . . . .

SUPER DRAGON!

It was such an awesome costume - probably better than anyone else's, but my mom says I'm not supposed to say that - that it might make my friends feel sad if I say my costume is better, so let's just say it certainly wasn't any worse than ANYONE else's costume. And I'm sure I didn't get any LESS candy than anyone else, either.

I went trick 'r treating with some of my best buddies, and some new friends, too.

See the princess? That's a girl. You know she's a girl because she's dressed up like a princess. She was nice, so I let her hold my hand. And she helped me to not fall down on the way up to the doors. Who can see stairs when you're looking for the person with the candy?

My mom helped me and Robert Franklin to carve our pumpkins. I showed her what face I wanted and she cut in onto the pumpkin. Mine's the one on the lowest step.
And here's Robert showing the face that he wanted.

Look out, Peter Parker! I'm going to take BOTH of your jobs!

Wearing an antique


Stanley's post:
Check out who is styling in their vintage fall sweater. This sweater is clearly older than me. It's even older than my mom. This sweater was my Unlce Kevin's - it says so on the tag.
I wore it to school and my teachers loved it. I'm sure my friends thought it was cool, too.

Lookin' Cute

Mom and Dad are always pulling the camera out - I don't even have to do ANYthing. They take my picture sitting in my car seat,
resting in my pak 'n play,
or just sitting in my chair. I don't know what the big deal is.
