Matthew's school had their field day -- which was called Wittmann Olympics.
Each student got to choose 4 events to participate in. He chose Obstracle Course I, Obstacle Course II (which I missed), Standing Long Jump, and Side-Stepping.
For his class, he placed 2nd in 3 events and 3rd in one! (Can't remember which is which.)
He'll eventually get a ribbon for his efforts. Yay, Matthew!

Here he is side-stepping.


Whew! That was tiring."Obstacle Course I
Look at the determination on Matthew's face.


He was happy with his results, apparently.
Waiting in line for the Standing Long Jump.

dashiell made this all by himself today!
(using the picture as a guide)

i found this great curious george puzzle (for $1.90, clearance, at staples!) that dashiell did with minimal help for the very first time.

background:
i finished feeding brennan while derek was getting dashiell down for his nap. derek took brennan to the yellow room, and dashiell was in his room 'sleeping' quietly. i went down to eat lunch and watch some tv. about 45 min later, i go upstairs, and brennan's with derek. dashiell''s door is open, but no dashiell. i look under the bed, in the closet, in matthew's room, in the bathroom...no dashiell. our bedroom door is closed. derek said he left it open. i look in the bathroom and closets. no dashiell.
apparently, this was him under the covers. i couldn't even tell.

he was a little sweatball buried under the sheets. silly boy.
