Fascinating!

The boys and I watched some pirate/Captain Hook cartoon Sunday morning while Adam made breakfast. Nick was cracking me up sitting up on my stomach and Ben was still a little tired so he was slightly comatose

What's so funny?

So Many Different Expressions

Seven weeks old already! And so many facial expressions! It wouldn't be a Thursday without a little photo shoot

A Lovely Day at the Park with Lily

We met Lily and Susan at the Fort Imagination park today for a play date. Ben, as always, was running all over the place but I have a feeling it won't be long before Lily is following right behind him!

Ridin' Big Boy Style

Nick has been riding big boy style in the stroller the last couple of days on our walk. With it being warmer, I wanted to give him a bit more air and room than he has in the car seat. He actually stayed awake for the first half of the walk and was laughing and smiling at me, but he's always out by the time we stop to feed the fish.

I'm Cool Like That

Nick hanging out in the Moby wrap while Ben played outside yesterday. Sunglasses were required because we wouldn't want the bright sun to disturb his beauty sleep.

Those Silly Bears

Ben's favorite show right now is Berenstain Bears. He has started to understand the funny parts of the show and laughs hysterically. It's amazing to me that the show holds his interest so much. It's kind of nice when I'm feeding Nick for him to be so well entertained and stay out of trouble.

This Way and That

Roll'n this way and that. Not quite all the way over yet, but he sure can swing his bum in the air!

Bullseye!

First a little spit-up all over daddy

And then while he's cleaning that up, a nice poop

Well at least mommy found it hilarious!

Sand & Golf, But Not Together

The weather was perfect today, so in the morning we went outside to play. First Ben played a little golf, then he bubble mowed the lawn, then he moved sand around the yard in buckets that kept spilling everywhere then he played soccer, then he chased Monster, then he played golf again, then he played in the sandbox again... You get the idea.

Can You Find Ben?

Hidden among all the blankets and bears? And yet with all those blankets he never actually has one on himself - he just sleeps on top of them. I put his nee-nee on him before taking this picture. After a long day, sometimes sleeping 2 years olds are the best kind of 2 year olds

My Favorite Place

Nick's favorite place to be is in his Moby wrap, all snuggly up to mommy. A lot of times I have him in the 'kangaroo pouch' position where he kind of hangs his arm out the side.

Go Go Gadget Legs!

Trips to the Zoo

We recently have made a couple of trips to the zoo. On Saturday we went to see the fish and the 'baby elephant'. One of the elephants is currently pregnant and due soon. Hopefully everything will go well because it would be really cool to have a baby elephant at the zoo again! Louie, the current 'baby' is going to be 8 this month!

Nemo - Ben runs straight for this everytime we go in the aquarium

Pretty jelly fish

The elephant (I think this is the pregnant one)

And then today we went to the zoo with Cameryn, Tiffany and Lindsey. It was again a cool and rainy-ish day, but I have decided these are the best days to go. The kids had a lot of fun in the aquarium and looking at the monkeys and apes before heading over to Nature's Neighborhood where they had lots of fun with the face paints and playing catch me in the tunnel







And Nick, well, his first two visits to the zoo were not that exciting. So far he has found the zoo a great place to take a nap.

Such a comfy blankie

Starting to get some chub on those legs!
