A couple of times now Mom has had to be away for any number of reasons. Today, it was to go to her photography class at Balboa Park in San Diego. My (our?) unspoken rule is that when Mom is away, Dad and son will get into all kinds of "planned" trouble. While she was away, E and I had the opportunity to go to the community next door to ours and check out the large construction equipment being used. Needless to say, we spend a good 45 minutes there running around the front-end loader and watching the guys dig a large hole for a new pool being built.
Excavator in picture above had a huge jackhammer head on it and was using it to break up bedrock for the new pool going in. E did not seem to mind the noise. He just got excited whenever it moved. Again..."planned trouble".
My wife jokes with me that I do not know how to dress our son. For the record...the sippy cup MATCHES the sweatshirt AND the bib! Picture from St. Patrick's day when wife was in Michigan on work trip.
And again, when E and I ventured out to the local watering hole, I made sure the shoes MATCHED the shorts AND the bib. Yellow t-shirt is for bringing some color into the whole look.
Just imagine the adventures we will go on the next time Mom is away! I hear the Del Mar fair calling E and Dad's name in June! Oh the trouble we could get into there! (E ate WHAT at the Fair?!? You did not take him on the big rides did you?!? Why is he soaking wet?!? Is that dirt in his hair?!?)
Funny thing about the word trouble--it ends with and "E" and the boys' names who are getting into it start with "E". Coincidence....I think not! Have a great weekend everyone! -Dad
