Weekend Play with Grandpa John

Walker and Grandpa John share Lego construction tips.
What could be better?

Dr. Denisa

Every Friday, Charlie visits Dr. Denisa for a chiropractic adjustment. She helps our little guy stay aligned. She helps him to create and maintain spinal fluidity and muscular integrity. Her healing hands soothe his over-toned back. In short, we love her. And so does Charlie. When he lies down on her table, he submits completely. He lays his head down and looks askance as if to say, "I'm ready now."

Writing Sample

Walker is really into this cartoon called "Chugginton" about a little train. Chuggington also has a friend named Jackman who is a train car with a crane on top. Tonight, Walker made a little book about them and this is his title page, replete with an image of Jackman. Check out how mush his writing has improved in the three weeks since starting kindergarten!

Trot, Trot to Boston

I can't believe I've been sitting on these photos for a whole week!  Here they are - super cute shots of Grammie Betsy and Charlie going their thang:

Trot trot to Boston, Trot trot to Lynne. 

Careful when you get there that you don't fall in!

Mama at Squam Lake in New Hampshire

Thank you to Grammie Betsy for taking the boys this week while Mama attended the Squam Art Workshops near Holderness, New Hampshire!  What a beautiful retreat. Here's what Mama did while she was far and away.

Round and Round

Spent a little time today on the Carousel!

The Art of Losing Teeth

Walker had a lovely day with his Gramie Betsy who is in town for a little over a week. He has so many new things to share with her - school, new friends, new interests and a loose tooth!  He spent the afternoon in my art studio puttering with some paint and a canvas. Then after he declared himself "done", he played a game of ball with his dad and promptly lost his tooth! So it's a big night here at the Greenman house as we're anticipating a visit from the tooth fairy. Very exciting!

Here are some shots of the contemplative artist at work:
