Nature Boy!











William and Daddy went hiking with a group of Daddy's co-workers on Saturday. They had a good time, and William spent a lot of time running wild in the forest. Jason brought the back pack carrier as well, so William rode a lot too!

As Fresh as it Gets!

Feeding Goats with Daddy...


Chickens!
Picking his first strawberry, which moments later went into his mouth!



He ate a TON of berries, it worries me, but I still let him.
In honor of our first day back home, Daddy took the day off and planned us a fun day of berry picking! William loved the farm animals, and ate about pound of berries. I was reminded how back breaking strawberry picking is, and will now be more willing to pay extra for the pre picked berries, although NOTHING compares to the flavor of fresh picked berries!

A Milestone...

William scored FREE Ice Cream today at the Kentlands Festival...
It was really hot, and there was no shade, so I think it helped to cool him off...

This is our amazing castle that I scored off Craigslist. William adores it!
Perhaps it was the castle purchase, but today, after nap time, William was laying on my chest, snuggling away. He then squeezed me, and said " I LOVE YOU MAMA!" in the sweetest little voice. Note: There was no asking him to repeat it, and I didn't say it first!!! It made me feel SO great! At last, I am getting validation for all the love and effort I have been pouring into this lad for the last 2 years. Fantastic. I even cried. But just a little.
