Today's Toby

A pile of flags and flag cupcakes. Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate. It was a "thumbs up" kind of day.  

We're trying to pre-read the books we get from the library (in order to cut down on the number they get checked out).  

Just under a week until he's officially a Cheetah.   

I'm told that the movers will be bringing the sinks later. They needed to make 2 trips.  

The end of the summer is probably not the best time for it, but we're trying our hand at planting a few things.  

Sometimes you just go wherever your dreams take you during the night.  

The view from the terrace. Spencer didn't quite understand.   

He's completing for Team Nigeria in Row Skipping. (And event he is working to popularize.)  

Getting some morning sunshine after our school walk.  

Sampling the Italian Ice. Toby said it was good enough that he would order it again.  

Old game, new haircut.   

Making paint-sicles. Unfortunately, we didn't get great pictures of the actual painting. But Toby had fun making them and painting with them.  

Apparently, the rollie slide has 66 rollers. Toby counted them 2 by 2 as he came down. (Over several passes.)  

A near brother and a far brother.  (And the near brother having fun on this rolling, tunnel thing.)  

Coming through the tunnel.  

Checking out where he might climb to next. Though, when you're playing on your school playground it's important to save some of the fun for when you're actually in school.   

We've started practicing walking to school in the morning. It involves climbing a big staircase. Thus, these are his "stair-stepping" legs.
