Two of my favorite things:
Pools and Otter Pops
It's going to be a good summer.

What he does best...

This poor child doesn't have a backyard. So he improvises...by pushing the jogging stroller up against our patio wall (we're in the basement), climbing on top of it and sticking his head over the ledge. He watches the neighbors, cars and buses (his favorite). Sometimes he'll climb up with a truck or two to drive along the wall.

A few of his favorite things...

Talmage really loves his blanket. A LOT. Thanks to my awesome mom for making this beautiful specimen of orange fur and aliens. We don't carry it everywhere, but around the house, it is his almost constant companion. Talmage also loves trucks, really anything with wheels and a motor.
The other day, I caught him giving his blanky a ride in his truck. It was so funny, I had to take a video and this is it.
Notice how well he plays until he realizes I have the camera. He instantly changes into a silly, cheesy mode. He also blows his nose at me. This is a newly acquired skill, for which I am grateful, I just wish he would do it when I have a kleenex somewhere nearby. Good thing no boogies ended up on the camera.
p.s. He can say 'cheese'. He can actually say a lot of things, but he will never do it on command. Only on his own terms...
