What's New with Evie Mac?: November 2007

Oh yeah, this fall stuff is some good fun. Mom and Dad had me out somewhere new just about every day it seems, and it usually

entailed being outside. I like being outside. You can have a lot more fun outside. You can run a lot more outside. Overall I'd say outside is where it's at. What's "it"? I don't know...but outside is where you can find "it". Fall was also neat because of all of the changes I got to watch. The air was cooler, the trees turned pretty colors (most of which I know by name, thank you very much), you can see your breath in the morning, and all the pesky bugs went away. I changed, too. My teeth are all coming in now, I have grown a ton, I look less like a penguin when I run now, and I can help get myself dressed to go outside to play. I'm still a punk, but that will NEVER change. Yeah, I'm pretty much all grown up now I'd guess (although I can't be sure...I haven't done this before). Figure I'll keep living here though so I don't have to pay rent somewhere else...you have no idea how overpriced housing is over here!

My most fequent hang-out was the park down the street. It's only a 3 minute walk to get there, so we'd go there a lot when Mom and Dad got home from work. It has swings, slides, a merry-go-round, and plenty of room for me to run around. For some reason they liked to take me there right before a nap on the weekends, too. Haven't figured out why yet...I was usually too tired to think about it while we headed back home. Anyways, I'm pretty awesome in a swing (as you can see), so that's usually where we'd start and finish the outing. Dad would get me going pretty high sometimes, but it's just a good place to chill out and check things out. Since we're so close to the airport, it was a great place to spot "air-pains" and say "bye-bye" to them. Did you know that they go ssssshhhhhhhhh across the sky? Well I did, that's why I told you.

You meet some cool kids at the park, too. This is a shot of me playing with my friend Udi and his mom on the merry-go-round (I like pushing it). They just moved here from Israel. I also have a South African friend that I play with from time to time. His dad has a funny accent, and usually is pretty silly when he's pushing the swings. I like the neighborhood kids... I just hope we can still play when it gets cold outside.

Then there was Halloween. The bigger kids at daycare tell me I'll like it more when I can go "tricking and/or treating", but for now I like it just fine running around in silly clothes. This year, I was a monkey. Instead of telling you all about it...I'm just going to show you a ton of monkey pictures. Cool?
