Wordless Wednesday

(It was taken yesterday.  I'm just having a hard time getting photos onto this new computer!)

The Many Faces of Snuggles

Here are a few pictures of what my little guy was up to while I was trying to take a few pictures of his older siblings during their Life-Saving Class yesterday at swimming.

Playing with a ball.

Shaking the fence to hear the little wind chimes rattle at the top.

Picking some grass on the other side of the fence.

Running out the gate and throwing a tantrum when I said we needed to go back.

"Oh, but wait, is that a helicopter I hear???" 

"I know it is up there somewhere!"

Petting the birdie that the angel is holding. 

"But mom, I really don't want to go back inside the gate..."

"Plus, I just know that helicopter is still up there somewhere, above all these trees..."

"huh!! Do you hear that!"

(This final photo is such a classic face of his, and I was so excited to sort of capture it... and then head back to the pool! ;) )
