Aunt Jen-Jen Came to Visit (a few weeks ago!)

These pretty toes are the main reason Jen came to visit. We s got pedicures for our birthdays--which was soooo fun and relaxing!! I loved it!


These boys love their aunt Jen!

we spent a lot of time at the park. we've been going there a lot since the weather has been so nice. We wore coats and hats when Jen was here, but now it's a lot nicer!

More of Alex's Antics!

Alex spends the first hour or so of his naptime looking out his window. He loves to watch the birds and yell at them! I often hear things like, "Hey Bird!" or "Go Away Bird!" or "Mommy Bird, Daddy Bird, Baby Bird! Hey You!" I was hanging some clothes out on the line the other day and turned around to see him peeking at me and I had to run in to get the camera and snap a pic!


Daddy may hate the dandelions, but they provide hours of entertainment for little boys!

Not sure what is going on here...;-)

Fun in the Sprinkler

Sam was immediately intrigued by the sprinkler. He is our brave one and wanted to go figure it out right away.

Alex, the suspicious one, was a little nervous and kept his distance until the very end when I held his hand and helped him run in the water!

Sam stood about 2 feet from the sprinkler and just let it soak him. He barely moved, just stood there trying to catch the water and staring at it! That little brain is always working!

Alex prefers to watch from a distance, still, though he cheers Sammy on!

"Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick"

Sam is now into sticks. Whenever we are outside he wants to carry them around. He pokes & wacks on trees, the ground, whatever! Big sticks, little sticks...it doesn't matter. Now, if we could just get him to stop running with those sticks...


These pics are from Aunt Jen's visit here last weekend. We had a great time with her. Sam was particularly chummy with Aunt Jen, giving her several open mouth, slobbery kisses, and even said "Jen-Jen" several times! I think he might have her wrapped around his finger until eternity for that one!

Goofin' Off at Lunch

Alex's latest quotes: when he wants you to look at him he says, "Mook at me! Mook at me!" and when he wants you to take a picture of him (ah the vanity) he says "Alex cheese! Alex cheese!"


Today he did his typical, "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!" and then, "kiss please!"
Gotta love this crazy, goofy kid!
