Malcolm and Evelyn: June 2006

Fishing

Malcolm loves this little cardboard magnetic fishing game that Oma pulled out of the attic. He lines the magnet on the fishing rod up with the little magnets on the tip of the fish and reels them in. He especially likes when he catches the tin can.

Gardening with Simon

One Mighty Malcolm moseyed up the mountain...

while another Mighty Malcolm moseyed down.

Hold the strawberries

This morning at breakfast I asked Malcolm if he would like a little sugar on his strawberries. He shook his head no, and pointed to the sky making an airplane sound. Oh, would you just like your strawberries plain? He shook his head no, and pointed to the sugar then made another airplane sound. I want my sugar plain, Mom.

Happy Father's Day

Banana slug hideout

First we found the Mama banana slug along the trail, then the Dada further up. Just as Malcolm was wondering if we were going to find a little boy slug, he peeked into a hole in the base of this tree and, much to our delight, there he was!
