Seeing Spencer

Roundabout? Merry-Go-Round? Whatever you call it, it was a great way to pass the time while mom was getting her new NJ ID. Keep an eye out for joy expressed in different ways from both kiddos at the end of the clip.  

Did I get ice cream? You better believe it.  

When you've been quietly playing with the water in the container and you realize you could have dumped the whole thing a long time ago.

Water fun in the evening sun.  

Fun on the slide.  

You know, they could make these book things a LITTLE easier to access.  

Playing peekaboo in the library stacks.  

The couch is nice, but this seat can't be beat. Thanks Sauer Family!  I climbed up here fair and square! Don't even think of moving me somewhere else.  

Anybody looking?  Woohoo! Chair Party!  

Just hanging out.   

Some days you go to see the animals at the zoo, some days you're in the zoo.  

I unpacked this mat today and Spencer stopped in the middle of walking past with his walker in order to try out what it was like to lay on. Seems like it got a good review.   

Some days we try ideas from the internet and they provide endless entertainment. Some days it's a 30 second bust. Fortunately, this one only took about a minute to set up, so it wasn't a huge loss.  

We had a good run of it, but Covid finally got us. We seem to be on the mend, but this is Spencer's response to Mom's cough... (Fortunately, the family members who were visiting us all seem to be fine. Yesterday's picture of Cousin Harry was taken about a week ago.)  

Hey Spencer, can you eat these things?  Nah Harry, pretty sure they're just for throwing.  OMG, that looks delicious! Harry, you're a genius!   

After 13 months of mini-cribs, he's finally been upgraded to the Cadillac. Ahhhh!  

Thanks for your help, Grandma. I don't know who keeps putting the heads and butts on these magnetic animals but it has got to stop. I want them to be apart and stay apart.   

Finally! Enough space for me to walk around with my walker!  Ok. Perhaps you guys have taken this TOO far. I don't think we should have gotten rid of EVERYTHING.   

When you said "don't pull the drawer open"... You weren't talking to me, were you? Cause these socks are not going to jump out of here on their own. (You're welcome.)  

A little help? This bowl isn't going to fill itself.  

What is this orange thing you ask? Why, it's a...You know, I'm not sure what it is.  I can hear you snickering over there and I don't appreciate it. Nobody knows what these things are!  

Don't mind me. I'll just be climbing up and down on this spinny chair.  

Hanging out in your diaper in front of the fan.  

It's nice to have someplace where you feel like a Giant.   

There is a small window of time where people are ok with you not wearing pants. Enjoy it.
