Strawberry picking (or not)

This week we went to the strawberry fields hoping for some nice berries! I was also hoping that while I picked berries, he would be busy picking/eating to his hearts content! Well the berrries were very small and every time I put one in the bucket a sweet little boy was there to help it disapper.




So after 15 minutes and an empty bucket we decided to let the boys just play...AND they had fun!!! Good thing we had a change of clothes!







And before we left we had to say hello to the cows. Nathaniel wanted to climb in all by himself!

I want to be like Papa

Tennis star?

Logan might go pro!



One of Nathaniel's favorite things to do at the club is to play with the racquetball in the lobby. He asks the front desk for permission to go behind the counter, open the drawer and get the racquetball out. Sometimes he gets the racquet too. He often asks others to play catch with him in the lobby as they walk by. Most people will oblige. At the end of the day we always make sure to put it back and tell it to go to sleep till we come again tomorrow.

Swimming with Daddy

"Still playing Mommy, still playing!" That's what Nathaniel said when he saw me get up... before I could say it was time to go. We expect to be at the club for the next 12 weeks playing in the pool!

Fun with Cousins

Helping Papa Jim

We now have AC! Thanks to Papa Jim, Daddy and their little helper!



A hard days work always ends with a good snack!

Grand Floral Parade

Parade Time! We went to a parade last year but this year Nathaniel was totally into it... clapping for the floats, dancing for the bands, and hoping to pet the horses. We had an amazing spot thanks to an old friend who invited us to join. We were with the cousins and it didn't rain! What a perfect day.

Singing his heart out!

A boy after my own heart! My mom has a similar picture of me with a drape cord as my microphone.

Scooter

Logan is finally mobile! He doesn't care much for being on his tummy, so he found another way to get around. video

Logan on the move

Well here he is stuck... but in general he is on the move now!

Butter

If Nathaniel comes over... you may want to hide your butter. He will eat it right out of the wrapper!

Boys in a Basket

Snack time

Jr Rose Parade

Tradition lives on! We attempted to be the 3 Blind Mice in the children's parade on Wednesday. My good friend Bonnie and her kids and I have been walking in it together for the last 6 years. I was surprised Nathaniel was able to walk most of the parade himself. He did think the drums were coming after him so we let the band go in front of us. Everything was good after that.

Dinner Conversations
