The caterpillar survived the first night, and in the morning it was treated to a Lego robot condo.
A while ago we were video chatting with Gramma and she showed us some work being done in her house. Trevor then drew this artwork for her about the “construction” he saw.
He’s made another masterpiece with some tape, I just hope he isn’t having any genuine premonitions.
He will explain it for you.
Gramma said she wanted to hear Trevor talking!
**If this video says “processing”, give it time. Youtube is being so slow with this big video. It should be available in the morning.**
The sad news is that there are no Trevor-Daddy Road Trip photos to share. They forgot to pack a camera! Bill did have his helmet video cam, and managed to get a couple of cute videos.
First, daredevil Trevor. A wipe out is nothing when there are a bunch of people to impress.
Then, cutest ever Trevor.
Today, Brendan had an eye doctor appointment. It was challenging to say the least, but the end result was an insurance mess to take care of and an increase in his prescription. We dropped off his existing frames for the upgrade. This time he is going to get some “Transitions” lenses (auto changing to sunglasses). We will see how that goes.
He had to have his eyes dilated, so he got the funky silly glasses to wear out.
Large pupils…
Crazy boy!
After we picked up Trevor at school, we stopped at Jonah and Christine’s house to rescue a caterpillar that was eager to devour their tomato plants. It is a baby green hornworm. The boys were SO excited.
Brendan held it!
When it started to crawl, he was ready to pass it to Trevor
Trevor let it crawl right up his arm and he talked to it like a little baby.
We don’t have any tomato plants to feed to it, so I hope it survives the night in the jar. This thing can decimate tomato gardens and gets about 5 times its current size before it makes its cocoon.
Bill and Trevor are attending the second annual Trevor-Daddy road trip to Parker, AZ to watch off-road racing. The 100 degree temps and all of the dust make it a non-Brendan zone. When they get home tomorrow, I hope there are some good pictures to share!
I have tried to treat Brendan to some fun. He misses his daddy and brother big time!
Last night we went to a pumpkin farm. They had baby chicks for sale.
He had the bounce house all to himself for a while.
His admission price included picking out a pumpkin from the “patch”.
And a hay ride
He got a bag of carrots to feed to mules, donkeys, and goats.
His health has not been 100% still. He needs a lot of oxygen when he is eating and the pump has to go really slow. Today he was pretty tired, so we visited some friends and ran some errands and ended up at IKEA.
In just 15 days, I will have four-year-olds! EEK! I am brainstorming ideas for birthday portraits, I will be taking those soon!
