Watching the Wild Boy Grow

Hello, hello.
Spencer is addicted to his new swimming pool!!

He loves " swwiiimmmiinnnn in dah ocean!" and of course, finds great amusement in sliding down the slide " strait into the wattterrr!". When inside he glances longlingly at said oasis, and should the sun peak out of it's clouds, it's immediately time for some aquatic fun. I am glad to see it, and his somewhat pale complexion ( ahem...he's white as a little Casper the ghost, we all know it....) a few days out in the sun have given his skin a little bit of a bronze tone.

We have also spent 85% of all days outside, mostly at the park, where the favorite activity has become "playing dingle dum". This game consists of walking along whatever strait line is available and calling out "dingle dum dingle dum!"He's working on that balance issue and is doing a fine job. I have NO idea where "dingle dum dingle dum" orginated. Go figure. It's nice to think that he created a little tune for himself though. He also loves to throw whatever pieces of trash away, and when there is no trash available, he attempts to rid the playground of woodchips. Well, he's certainly not a litterbug right? Yet he does love to play in the dirt, specifically the softball diamond on the eastern side of the park. He runs from first base to third base ( skipping second...) and back. Suffice it to say that he is pretty tired by the end of the day, and well sometimes that's a blessing. Ahem. He is growing SO fast, and loves to prounounce the fact, whether it be as he is eating ( Gonna make me grrooooowwwww!) or when he takes his vitamins, when after I prompt him with " These are going to make you healthy.."
he shouts gladly : "and STRONG!" He is such a wonderful little person, and so complex, when I do these posts I know everytime that I am not including all the things that make him such a beautiful being.
To quote Spencer ( when he sees tons of bubbles in the bathtub ) "Look at all these bubbles, it's ammmmaazing!" well of course without the bubbles part.

until we meet again,
mama
