Adventure

 Several weeks ago, Katie went with Grammy and Chappy and I had just the boys. We decided to go to Tyler Park and look around. James asked me for my camera, and went into his own little world. He was really taken by the camera and I wonder if he has found a new interest. He took a lot of the pictures below. It was so fun to watch him frame up the picture in his mind and then take the shot. At one point, he laid down in the field and I asked him what he was doing. He told me he wanted to get the tree line but with grass really big in the front. Is that my kid or what?! :)

 This he didn't take. Obviously.

 The Squatch accidentally coordinated his boots and his sweater. He was also not concerned with the fact that it was sweater weather and not advisable to get wet.

 This is a James shot. I love it!

 James asked me to take this one. I love this bridge! I have a ton of pictures of the kids on this bridge since they were little.

 Jumping for joy!

 Who is this ginormous child and what has he done with my baby?!?!

 They were trying to catch minnows. Minnows are very fast. It didn't work out too well.

My Big Beautiful Baby Squatch, as I am sometimes apt to call him

Another James pic

And another. I think this is a locust bean tree? Its hard to see but it has really long pods hanging from the branches.

This was James. I love the perspective!

And last but not least, I convinced him to participate in a good ol' fashioned selfie. The sun was in our faces so it didn't turn out too great, but man, I love that kid! He's the bomb.
