Leo has had built-in friends since he was born but just recently he’s really started to enjoy playing with other kids. He and John, especially, love being together. They both ask to go see the other one and when they see each other, it’s a love fest. “JOHN!!” “LEO!!” They exclaim. Then they chase each other in circles. Tomorrow they start sports class together so I’m sure we’ll have some good pictures and stories from that. Leo already pretends to play sports with John. He’ll hold a football and say in an almost announcer-like voice, “And then I THROW the ball to John and John catches the ball and then I tackle John.” He gets tackling and tickling mixed up so he actually means he’s going to tickle him :)
Last weekend Leo met a new friend—Celia. She’s our friends Courtney and John’s adorable one-year-old daughter. They came in town for a visit and we all went out to eat and to the Aquarium. As you can see, Leo thought Celia was pretty cool:
Celia wasn’t so sure. “Why won’t this dude let go of his train when he hugs me?”
On a date at Johnny Rockets. “So do you come here often?”
With Hunter and Olivia—all holding lovies and snack traps. I thought little Olivia was laughing but I think she might be screaming because Leo is stepping on her foot. Oh,well, they all had fun using bowling pins like bird wings and running around, flapping their arms.
Talking sports in the pool with Dawson and John. “Texas is totally gonna dominate this season, guys!” Dawson and John say, “This is Clemson’s year!”
Hand in hand with his bestie:

All these kids are just too cute! And leo is lucky to have a mom who chronicles all these happy memories.
Celia is a doll baby! All of the kids are so cute. The besties holding hands is my new background photo. Can't wait to see Leo and the gang at Labor Day!
Pool photo with Leo's BF is my fave, too -- but I wonder, NO SUNGLASSES?
He's not as obsessive about his sunglasses. He doesn't ask for them but he will wear them if I put them on him.
Update from sports class: The teacher "Coach Mia" was nice about calling Leo "The Goalie" the whole time :) She said she would even make him a name tag for next week that said "The Goalie." I told her not to bother though because it could be different. Today he's been the Goalie, the Conductor and a baby.
