First canoe ride! We had so much fun, and Magnus enjoyed trying to paddle "all by himself".
This tree frog jumped on our canoe and stayed with us (in spite of our efforts to ditch him!) until we got home - he even rode in the canoe on top of the car! I thought he was cool until he jumped on my arm with those sticky pads of his. Joe thought it was funny to actually hear me squeal like a girl! Magnus thought the best part was when the frog pooed on the canoe, and he still talks about that, as if it were the highlight of his trip!
Magnus entertained himself by trailing his hand in the water as Daddy paddled us around.
First painting (acrylics)! I gave him a couple of my paint colors to experiment with, and when he got the hang of it, he started asking for specific colors to add to it! ("Please, red!", "I need the blue!" or "Need more white!") He was very careful to stay on the paper (as I told him to be!) and I think it turned out to be one of the most beautiful paintings ever!
He accidentally touched his brush to his face... =) Here he is still deep in concentration.
First kite! Joe introduced Magnus to another great flying phenomenon.
Magnus was so proud of his kite!
