a day in the life

I decided to take the camera along with Donovan and me for a day last week to show everyone our routine. Basically, when it is too cold and windy to go outside, we walk to Brad's office. Donovan ends up running around everywhere trying to get into everything and making the RA's and desk worker's laugh. He usually stops at Derek's office (Brad's co-worker) and tries to play with his blinds before running to Brad's office. He is usually pretty disappointed when Derek isn't there and his door is closed, but he tries to get to the blinds through the window anyway.

He loves to play with the mail slots at the front desk. When the fun people are working at the desk, they will peek at him through the slot.


Those were the two best videos of the day. He sure is a handful, but he is a cute little handful.

Brad showed Donovan how to get on his rocking chair the other day and now he climbs up there all the time.



This is my favorite face.
We decorated Halloween sugar cookies today with Lenna and Mason. Donovan just ate the cookies, but it was still pretty fun.
Mason was a professional with the sprinkles. I think he used every color on each cookie.Life goes on. Nothing too exciting is happening right now. The soccer teams have the Region Tournament this weekend so Brad will be out of town again. Hopefully both teams will advance on to the District Tournament next weekend...not that I want to get rid of him, but he is much happier when the teams do well! I think it takes the edge off the stress of his day job. I will let you all know how it goes. Donovan is still going to his story times. Those will end the Wednesday before Thanksgiving week. He seems to like it, even though he tries to escape sometimes. It is good for him to be around other kids. There is one other boy in the group who is crazy like Donovan, they both climb and jump on everything. His mom and I have a good laugh every week watching our silly boys. The week before last the story lady brought out blocks and Donovan went around knocking over everyone's towers. Are we raising a bully? Anyway, nothing else is going on. We are just living life and enjoying our cute little boy. We are still in awe of how much we love the little guy, and how adorable he is.
