Seeing Spencer

The Dinos were working hard today at Dino School. There were two groups. One was doing playdough and the other way painting.   

Introducing, Ironbear! The newest superhero on the block. (Any resemblance to Ironman is purely coincidental. So are any echos of Batman's theme song.)  

Clearly scheming about something...  

Another throwback to last week when Uncle Scott was teaching Toby and Spencer about Battleship.  

Spencer drew some flags for his brother. He knows his way to his heart.  

Take my picture! Do I look silly?  

A good detective searches every corner and considers every clue.  

Getting a little help from Dad to get Advent Lightening McQueen out of the box.  

Crunching up PEZ and living his best life. Thanks, Great Aunt Bonnie!  

They make nicer smiles when they're warm. Usually. OK, sometimes.  

Before his shift at Santa's workshop   

We kicked-off the Christmas season with a holiday train ride through rural NJ.   

It's nice to finally have someone around who gets Batman.

Snuggling with Grandma is nice, but was should always keep an eye out in the Alligator slippers.  

Fun fact: Batman can play the flute. Even without his hands! Who knew?  

Books are great. But they're even better when you can read them together.  

Sometimes even Batman needs to take a break to watch a video.  

Spencer has found great joy hiding from Toby before their goodnight hug.   There aren't too many places to hid in his room, but tonight he took it up a notch.  

First you dream. Then you draw.  

Today there were several orders for Mustard Powder, which Spencer was happy to fulfill.  

We acquired some placecards from the library, so Spencer decided he would do a Stuffie Thanksgiving. (It was picnic style since we didn't have that many chairs.) Each guest got 5 items to ear. A great time was had by all.  

A picture from school. They were exploring whether various items would sink or float.  

Who me? I'm just a cutie. .  

Cautious Surfing at the Playgroud.   

Any place is a good place for a good book.  

Playing some Hi Ho Cherry-o.  

Reading Mom one of her favorite books - Llama Unleashes the Alpacalypse - while she makes dinner.  

Spencer was inspired to do some Dog Man art.  

When you weren't intended to be the subject of the picture, but you ended up being the subject of the picture.
