This month was all about the Mason Man becoming mobile. At the beginning of the month he had just learned to roll both directions and by the end of the month, you'd put him down in one spot and there was no telling where he would end up!
Here are a few other cute tidbits from this month:
Sadie (while watching TV suddenly turns to Caden and says): I'm going to dream about you tonight.
20 minutes into driving home from a playdate, both kids are quiet and I think they might even fall asleep. And then...
Caden: Sadie
Sadie: What?
Caden: I love you.
The end of our summer was also spent...

Enjoying our very last swaddle before sleep training.
Putting on impromptu performances with our friends.
Setting off rockets in the park.
Growing pumpkins and other fruit in the backyard. (Update: the pumpkins have some sort of blight and deer ate ALL of the plums on our trees in one afternoon - whaa whaa.)
Taking up a new hobby.
Coloring (lots and lots of coloring).
Cooking with Mom and with Tina.
Putting the finishing touches on the backyard excavation site.
Building at the LEGO table.
Celebrating with Daddy.
Buying ice cream with allowance money.
Making a jumbo slip-n-slide.
Visiting with Aunt Sarah.
And learning new tricks from her.
Riding bikes.
Turning into monkeys.
Narrowly avoiding stitches (took a knee to the face jumping off the top of the jungle gym).
Backsliding on the sleep training and totally getting away with making your way back into Mommy and Daddy's bed every morning because you're the baby of the family and Mommy and Daddy are weak.
