Felix's First Walk To School

Natalie gave Felix one of her old back packs; a stuffed Pikachu. He has been trying it on lately and is quite adorable. While I was working on the front porch today, Felix was inside putting the backpack on, he opened the front door, walked past me and announced matter-of-factly, "I'm ready for school." With that he stepped off the porch, walked out of the yard, got to the street corner and then turned to walk out of my sight. He looked back only once and not in that 'I'm two years old and daring you to chase me' way but instead in that, 'see you after school gets out, mom' way. I ran into the house to tell dad that his son had just left for school and was currently in front of the neighbor's house out of sight! Dad caught up with him and confirmed that Felix was indeed, "going to school". 99% adorable 1% scary.


What dad doesn't know is that he pulled a similar stunt with my purse this week only that time he was, "going to work".

Oh, man that is soooo cute! Sorry Renae, I don't think there will be any calling for mama on his first day of school, he's going to shoo you away. (On Susie's first day she said to me "you can go now." It still stings.

Interesting that Felix emulated mom by grabbing a purse rather than emulating dad and pulling on his pajama bottoms to "go to work."

Three posts in one month? That must be some sort of record for this blog!
