What's our little one sayin' now??

Now he also says:
- Bop (the name for my Dad)
- Nana
- His little cousin's name (his little cousin... every time her picture comes up on our screensaver he says her name)
- useful ones for getting diapers changed (and that is when he uses them, instead of for the exciting comic effect that thrills 4 year olds) - well, just guess
- Stuck! - also very useful for getting out of tight places, or getting stuff that you can't get yourself
- Shoes - he has a shoe "thing"... has to wear everyone's shoes... so that makes sense
- Woohoo!!!
- ball

I was just asking him now if he can say Blue, Diego or yucky, but it just made him start looking for toys with those names, or wonder why I was telling him he's yucky, so I'll let those go for now! He understands a lot, though!

He likes dressing up with his big brother with all their dress up clothes! They were in about 4-5 different costumes this evening... Davy Crocket, a fireman, some type of wizard and:

Organizin'

There are a LOT of clothes being taken out of boxes, put in boxes, reorganized for yard sales and consignment, analysed for future use.... it took me all last weekend!

Time spent organizing all the clothes last weekend: 10 hours...

First Day of school

Kieran had his first full day of school this past Monday. He is in Kindergarten, but in the school division we live in, nursery school is part of the division, so he's actually been at school for a whole year already, and even has the same teacher, who he loves. He's enjoying it, and was actually looking forward to starting again!




Here is a picture of a chilly little Schaefer on the beach, which can be titled "Summer's over"


A couple of cute September pics:





We just had sushi for supper, and it occured to me that I have never taken pictures of Kieran demonstrating how much he loves it... although it would be better to have a picture of his absolute favourite type, which is sashime and is basically a big slab of raw salmon on some rice... but this is pretty good anyway! Michelle, thanks for those dishes... we get a lot of use out of them!
