It has been over a month since I posted anything and I feel just terrible about it. So here's a giant barrage of photos for your viewing pleasure.

Darwin loves the playground ... and I mean really LOVES it, what with all the climbing and swinging and sliding and stuff.








Darwin's Tika and I have starting going for little hikes in the nearby Fells. It's slow going with the little one (you know, having to stop and dig up dirt and pick up sticks every five feet) but we all really enjoy ourselves.





We're trying to teach him that throwing things isn't actually ok, but so far that lesson isn't sticking at all.



He's reading a lot these days. Somehow he's turned into a complete boy and all he wants to read about is trucks and dinosaurs. Oh well, at least those are two super cool things to know about!



Darwin recently became gainfully employed. Well, no, but it sure looks good on him, huh?



Now that the weather is nicer we're starting to hang out on our beautiful back porch more often ...



... where the wind wreaks havoc on the poor boy's hair.




Just recently he also had his first date, with Miss Athena. He proved himself to be quite the ladies man, by getting his foot caught in a balloon's string and completely ignoring her while he tried to untangle himself. Ah well, he is definitely his father's child.



And no worries, he does still love his beans.
