Wow What a Wednesday...Thursday...and now Friday

It was a wet week - not good for the fields - but it was a fun one to - Matthew got to spend extra time with Kegan! It poured on Wednesday so Matthew met Kegan and I as we were leaving our last swim lesson and went home with us to spend some extra time with his son! As you can see below both Kegan and Matthew were enjoying playing in the sprinkling rain.

Matthew brought Kegan under the porch to watch the water pour off the roof...and stick Kegan's head under the water. Kegan seemed to really be enjoying getting wet and investigating the rain coming down.

Wednesday night we all got to go to our first circus as a family. It was SO much fun. Kegan loved all the lights and all the movement and action going on down on the floor. He stayed awake and fixed on the "show" from 7:30 till we left at 10:00. He only cried once really - it was after intermission during the tiger act. I think the music startled him. The tears were nothing a little bit of cotton candy couldn't handle though...his second time to have cotton candy. He loved it!!! (I think the cotton candy helped him stay awake and ACTIVE till the 10:00 circus ending. The other babies around us that were about his age were all zonked out. Hmm...now we know what sugar does to him! It was a lot of fun though - it was neat to look at his eyes and see them follow the "acts" around the circus ring - so cool that he can be that observant now. There were times however, that he was a little more interested in the lights flashing on the ceiling, but he stayed very entertained none the less! (Now you will notice in these pictures it looks like daddy and Kegan went alone to the circus...but I am in one picture to prove mom went to!)
Kegan and daddy in the rain headed toward the circus.

This is Kegan, fixated on the opening act (in the picture following), but as you can see, with all those lights, why wouldn't he be fascinated!?!


Proof mom was at the circus, too. Kegan was more interested in what was going on in front of us during the intermission...

Here Kegan is playing and talking with one of his other friends, Luke, that went to the circus, also. Aren't they cute!

The show is back on - this time the elephants are performing. He looks like he is really studying what is happening down below.

One souvenir - a hat came with the sugary cotton candy treat we ate! He was not as into the hat as he was the bagged food in it. (Notice the time - 9:49 and not a bit tired!)


Thursday was another rainy day, but another day to get to spend a little extra time with his daddy. We all went and ate then came home and played some. Matthew took these pictures of Kegan standing while I was holding his hands. Kegan was laughing and having a blast. What a great happy smile!!!

Hey dad, what are you doing so far down there?

This picture is kind of blurry, but it shows how close Kegan is to crawling. He is getting better with his stance...he is just not quite sure how to move once he is in position.


Finally, here are some pictures from today(Friday) - this is in honor of all you Aggies out there! Doesn't he look good in all that maroon!?! Do we have a future Aggie here...I don't know!?!


I don't remember what day this was - but it was some time this week. I started taping because Kegan had "thrown" the ball one time and Roo got it and brought it back to him - too cute. I wanted to catch it on tape so I started rolling...what I got though was a great clip of Kegan getting in his crawling stance and trying to move forward to grab Roo's toy. So neat!!! I was very excited - as the commentary will show...haha!
