Percussionists on the Prowl

Jax- left; Dex-right.

We've been savoring a string of unexpectedly beautiful fall days. Every night I fall asleep convinced I'll be awaking to a world covered in glistening frost. Instead, I've been waking up to lovely weather reports and 70 degree (yes, that's right folks... we pulled out the T-shirts today) weather! So, until winter decides to start freezing our beloved outdoors, the boys and I will continue to spend as much time as possible exploring, discovering and enjoying...

These photos were taken last week-end. Dex and Jax get such delight out of the sounds items make. In the top photo, they're gleefully patting the swing-set pole. It makes a ringing sound that absolutely thrills them. When do we stop taking pleasure in such simple things? :) We also have an outdoor "piano" that the munchkins can play. Of course the boys can never seem to get enough of this, as they can bang away to their hearts content. See how fast Jax's hands are moving in the photo at left? Hee hee. Do we have two little percussionists? Absolutely!

I had to post these photo of Dex. He looks like he's on the the prowl. What a goof-ball! Both boys walk with their hands and arms in the air, at times. It must have something to do with improving/maintaining their sense of balance... and it's absolutely adorable.
