Another quick Indiana trip

A couple weekends ago we took Drew to a jazz concert at a park. We had dinner and let him run around a bit. He wasn't to in to the music, but they have all different kinds of music there, so I think we'll try it again when there's some more upbeat stuff! Here he is finishing up dinner so he can go throw the frisbee some more.

This past holiday weekend we made another quick trip up to Indiana. My grandmother has been sick, so we wanted to spend some time with her. Drew did so good - even skipped his naps so he woudln't miss out on anything! But eventually he passed out...and ended up in bed with Grandma!

Drew enjoyed running around outside the Hospice Center. This statue was interesting (although he wouldn't sit in the bowl for a picture!). There was also a fountain that was lots of fun.

Drew was so good on the trip. He is definitely papa (my dad)'s little buddy! He walks around with his hands clasped behind his back just like my dad now. And we will never forget how my dad was hunched down making Drew's grinch walk around, saying "doody doody doo"...and then Drew tried to do it! SO funny! He is such a copy cat! And of course that was followed with a "more, more." That's his favorite word if he likes something and wants more of it. He also mastered saying "Lyndsey" this trip and loved playing with her! And he has started saying "this" and patting the floor if he wants you to come sit next to him and play.

Today I took Drew to a storytime at the library that several of my friends have been raving about...and it was great! The first 45 minutes is a regular storytime with Mr. George. Drew sat in my lap the entire time, just checking things out. He was very in to the stories and waved "hi" when we introduced ourselves, but he did not want to get up. (By the way, out of the 5 boys that were there, there were THREE Drews!) Then the last 30 minutes was a Spanish storytime, and Drew became much more daring. He was up and right in the middle of all the dancing kids. And his copy cat skills came in handy. He was the only little one that would copy all the teacher's actions as they sang songs. They even did "head, shoulders, knees and toes" in Spanish and that's one of Drew's favorites! After each song, he'd look for me and yell "Mommy!" and stand with me for a minute and then jump back into the song or story. (hope he doesn't do that when we start sports! haha).
