A couple of pictures....

We went to the Blue and White carnival - it was new this year- they had a whole lot of activity around the blue and white scrimmage- its where the PSU football team separates and plays themself....but hey, no one's had any football since New Year's.... so it's a big event... especially when its a nice day out... big excuse to go tail gating (big excuse for people to get drunk and sunburnt...haha...not us- plenty of sunscreen used!). We went for a little while...but I forgot the camera :( Nate just rode around in the stroller looking at the thousands of people mulling about... We got home and had lunch and Nate went for a late nap. After the nap we went to Tractor Supply- if you want some free fun and you have a boy who loves tractors and trucks, go to the Tractor Supply store.... :) I DID bring the camera for that... Then on Sunday it was rainy and we were indoors.. so I taped some paper down to the floor and let Nate go wild with his markers that Grandma got him! They do this at daycare, so he knows to stay on the paper- he did really well! :) Enjoy!!
Just chillin' on a tractor....
I don't even think he's heavy enough to make the springs on the seat go down.....
This one's for Granddad's woods road!
Playing with the markers...
He wasn't very good at putting the marker point down... he's better at crayons right now....
When you say " do you want to color?" He'll say "yellow"- he points out yellow objects as well- especially the yellow daffodils and forsythia bushes- he'll say "yellow"- when you ask him what color say something blue is he'll say yellow- or he won't say anything at all.....we haven't quite figured out what his association is yet, for he'll only call out and say "yellow" if he sees yellow things....so its not like every color is yellow - but i think he's associated the word "yellow" with yellow things as well as the word "color".

And this one is just because he's cute! :)


Also- I want to give a shout out to my new niece - no pictures yet.... Got a call from my brother around 9pm- Simone was born at 7:34 (central)pm this evening weighing in at 8lbs 8oz and is 19in long- we are so happy for them and can't wait to see pictures- they she's beautiful with dark hair! :) If her hair stays dark, she'll be quite a contrast to Nate! :)
