Guess Who Found the Peanuts?

I’m not sure I remember the first time I learned to played to catch. Such a simple game – I’m happy, at least, that I can witness just how fun it is for a little person to discover.

It was more like Dexter emptied the clean laundry so I could fold it … but I’ll give him credit for helping.

And he is a much bigger help now than in the fall – remember this post? (here)

Anyone out there remember how fun smashing your face against a window used to be? I remember it being the funniest when someone would be on the other side of the glass to witness just how ridiculous my face could transform.

Dexter reminded me of this silly game yesterday. Unfortunately I couldn’t be on the other side to snap the photos … but you can get a pretty good idea of how goofy he was being from my vantage point.
