Gus

60

 We had a great time celebrating Papa Clark's 60th back in June. Uncle Danny and Aunt Maggi gave Blaise his favorite birthday gift, Manti Te'o's new jersey.

Once in a blue moon...

Everything goes quiet and the books come out.

The Big Bros

Cousin Sleepover

Going back in time. My computer had a virus and so I couldn't upload pictures all summer. Here are a few from July when we did a cousin sleepover for the "big kids."

Hard at work

Gus's friend Eileen comes to work with him every Monday. He is walking now and she deserves all the credit. He smiles and pounds the window when he sees her pull up outside.

When we grow up...

Happy Birthday Dad!

Colorful Cat

Gus loves to color; A.K.A. draw inside his mouth. He was demoted to crayons after several incidents involving unwashable Crayola markers.

The Help

Quiet Time

Ready for some football

Still Manti's littlest fan. Wearing jersey from Aunt Maggi and Uncle Danny. 

Silly

Blaise modeling the eyewear he would have chosen had the eye doctor given him the green light. 

Gus post Oreo.

Baptism

Blaise asked if he could baptize Gus = douse him with water. Plan B:  play baptism instead. Here Blaise was an altar boy, Gus was the crazy godfather who kept trying to touch the candle and our baptismal candidate is seated next to Gus. 

Bird Bath

Gus, you always manage to find the one lone puddle, scoot through it and then drink from it. You know what you like.
