Games...

On our way home from Kansas in September Landon discovered the game beloved by pre-toddlers everywhere...it's called "drop an object and cry until mommy picks it up".  He went from amateur status to pro in approximately 2.7 minutes.

Happy times with the water bottle...


And he dropped it...


Okay, so this is the face he made when he dropped it...but because all babies refuse to perform on demand I "had" to knock it out of his hand this time to get the picture. Don't worry I picked it up right away and he forgave me.
