Overcoming Fear

We have gotten past the fear of vacuums. We apparently are now past the fear of swings. Tractors on the other hand are another story. Here are pictures of Titus on his swing and hopefully soon I will be posting pictures of Titus at his great-grandparents farm.

Pray Before Your Meal

Titus just started playing "pretend" recently. His first "pretend" was praying before he ate his tires (a.k.a. chocolate doughnuts). He sat down in his new chairs that grandma bought him at an end table my mom had given me a long time ago. He bowed his head, prayed, and pretend ate his "chocolate doughnuts." Since then, we have bought him some play silverware, 2 place settings, sausage, a frying pan, spatula and eggs.

Surprise Visit

Our friends, Frank and Julia, gave us a surprise visit. Their son, Isaac, will be 2 on April 23rd. The boys are about 7 months apart and play great together. Frank and Julia were suppose to close on a house, but were sent to Louisville instead to resolve bank issues. I can't say I was sad. Here are a few pictures of the boys and Stella, their 5-month old daughter.

Ramen Noodles

I gave Titus a big bite of Ramen Noodles and here are a couple of fun pictures.

Easter Egg Hunt

Last year Titus was too young to hunt for eggs. Do you remember this picture? 

This year I put an M&M in 16 plastic eggs and threw them in the yard, not really hiding them. He brought me one egg at a time to open them for him once he realized they had his favorite thing in the world inside, chocolate.

 What fun we had!

Easter at Our New House

Easter happens to be the first holiday we celebrated at the new house. Can you find Titus?

Here's a closer look at him.

And how about even closer...

And closer...

OK, that is probably close enough. Here is one more shot of him though in his Easter clothes.

I will post the egg hunt in a different post.

Mowing the Yard

We are in the process of giving Titus a few chores around the house. His first responsibility is to mow the grass. We let him practice back in Cortland, because here in Kentucky he now has almost 2 acres.
