This weekend we all went to an apple orchard & pumpkin patch. At first Joshua was a little uneasy with all the "nature" around him but later he was picking more apples than we could carry. Great weather, great company, and a great time.

As you can see he loves the new iMacs as much as his dad. This is Joshua kicking it at the Apple store playing Lego Star Wars.

Of course a few seconds after this picture he turned his attention to the black yoga balls the Apple store uses as seats.

Man Day

So yesterday was the last day I was required by health services to stay away from the office. I decided to keep Joshua home from daycare and have a father/son man day. It was fantastic!

We started the day the way all men should, with coffee and donuts. Then we hung out at the Ann Arbor mall for several hours. Briarwood mall is a great place for Joshua with its nice playground, fountains, and wide halls for him to run around in. We read books at Borders, played kids games at the Apple store and even listened to the piano player at Van Maur. We then went to lunch at Macs, his favorite restaurant where he ate his weight in tomato pasta and French fries.

Even though with all the excitement we missed his nap time he was in a good mood all day. I think I'm going to make "Man Day" a more regular event.
