Pirate ships and pick-up trucks

Sometimes it feels like my day is a neverending game of hide-and-seek or peek-a-boo. And it's a lot of fun! Daniel is growing up, communicating more and finding life enthralling.
Yesterday he discovered a run-down, abandoned black ute (pick-up truck) behind our house. One of the wheels was broken, but we made do. When I drove it over to him he was so excited and cruised around it, sat in it, smiled non-stop and made appropriate driving noises. This morning it was parked outside our front path and his huge grin brought me such joy! We also played with our 3yr old neighbour Rick, who was very patient and sharing with Daniel. I'm spending much more time outdoors with Daniel, and he thrives in the big, wide (sunny) world. Here are some pics below.
