The Generalissimo

Wm was very excited that Grandma and Papa came down yesterday, bringing Andrew and Tyler along with them.  Wm and Andrew played very nicely (for the most part!) and it was hilarious to listen to Wm chatting him up.  Wm used to be pretty easy going with other kids, letting them take the lead and content to follow along.  No longer.  I could hear him up there directing how things were going to roll - or trying to.  Wm is a little Generalissimo!  He has my genes after all.

Grandma brought a box of clothes from Andrew - and Wm was VERY excited to discover a complete Star Wars outfit.  I had to wash it last night so he could wear it today.  The pants are rolled over a couple times, but Wm insisted they fit.  I took some pictures of him in the outfit, but they didn't turn out well at all, so I will have to redo those later.

We took Wm to the gym this morning and he had a blast!!  He and Steve tossed the football, played basketball, messed around with the exercise balls, and generally had a blast while I sweated my butt off.  Usually Wm is lukewarm about the gym, but we had to drag him out of there today!

Today is the calm before the storm.  Wm does not like daylight savings time.  He wants his hour back.  He will be VERY grumpy tomorrow...and all next week. Waking him up at what his body thinks is 5:30AM is NOT fun.  At least he is enthusiastic about going to school now!  He asked this morning if it was a school day and was saddened to learn it was not.  He insisted on driving passed his school on the way to the gym to say "hello."
