Gideon's New Sports Equipment

Gideon absolutely loves being outside now that it's nicer weather. However, he doesn't have any outside toys. So I took Gideon to the store today to procure a soccer ball and a four square ball. Here he is helping by carrying the four square ball in to the house. Recently he has begun taking great pride in helping carry things to the house or out to the car. Here's the progression.
The threshhold from the garage to the sidewalk is an ENORMOUS undertaking for the boy. But he will not be stopped from completing the task at hand. Notice that he doesn't hold on to the bag in case he takes a digger, he has both hands to catch himself.
This pose is literally, do I obey Papa's command to go in to the yard, or do I make a run for it to the alley? This time he chose the yard.
No ladies, although he does look like he's on the catwalk, he's busy working.
Still moving towards the house!

It's sobering to realize how much work it is for these tiny folks to help out! Bonnie
