School is (finally) out for the summer and we’re very excited in the Schneider household!  The first thing we did was get Andrew’s hair cut.  This was his 4th haircut and his worst behaved.  Pete was still working so I was on my own to hold and entertain.  I thought that giving him a sucker would distract him, but it didn’t work this time.  He whined the whole time and then started screaming and thrashing when she turned on the razor at the end.  It was a mess of tears, hair, and strawberry sucker drool.  It was well worth the trouble though, Andrew looks much better!

We celebrated our first morning of sleeping in (6:45am) by making blueberry pancakes.

Andrew loves pancakes!

Even though it looks like he’s been eating dirt.

We got him all cleaned up and he thought it would be a good time to watch “baby” (TV).  Saturday mornings we usually give in and end up watching Imagination Movers or Handy Manny.  He got distracted by something small that he knew he shouldn’t put in his mouth, so he said “da doo” (thank you) over and over until I took it from him.

Enjoying the freedom of not being dressed yet. 

Trying to figure out the “baby”.

Later on that afternoon, I got him a snack of water and pretzel sticks.  I set them on a chair so he could reach them, but later realized he had moved them.  

The weather has been cold and rainy this weekend, so we took advantage of the indoor time and finally hung up some pictures.  We purchased two frames and will be able to enjoy Andrew’s artwork for a long time!
