Grandpa's Ladder

I think this was at one point Dave's dad's ladder and we switched because it was too tall for their house. Anyway, Anson loves this thing. He hasn't tried to climb up......yet!

All decked out for the Buckeyes!

He's Catching On.....

Dave took this series of pictures. This is Anson getting around one of our many safety gates.

If I pull this out......

And get my arm around the gate......

Pull a little more......

Squeeze my head through.....

Got the shoulders through........

Free man....

Through the dining room (please excuse this mess, this is my make-shift kitchen right now).

And his goal? Where the dogs are, of course!

Little Swimming Pool

Anson's first swimming pool. This was Labor Day.

Kinda cool, daddy!

Getting use to it.

This was today. He loved it!

Bella and Gretta kept coming over to see what the new toy was, prompting Anson to want to follow them across the yard.

It's so wonderful to watch him explore and enjoy new things. You really do re-live your childhood through your child.

Our boy. And, all boy he is.
