Father's Day Weekend

Some shots from Evan this weekend....

I am a Mean Mommy

Your bangs are LONG and the beach breeze was just too much so I took one for the team, let my hair down and put your UP.

Some Other Father's Day Activities

We hit the park Sunday morning with bagels in hand. Fed the ducks and played for an hour plus. Really some of my favorite stuff, bagels and boys. Yum!

Daddy's Day Run

Our first race together! We have been running for a while as a team (you rarely take your turn pushing the stroller but I can't hold it against you) We did our first race on Sunday. Culver's 5k Nothing big but it was still fun! I had ran a bit too much the week before so my legs were beat! It was hot and fun. It gave Daddy a Chance to sleep in while we hit the pavement.  Clocked in at 9:30 a mile. Guess we all have to start somewhere.

Shot of you I took before the race. 

Some shots our friend's husband caught from the sidelines

First movie, Toy Story 3!

After getting your meds we went to the movies! It was your favorite... BUZZ LIGHTYEAR! It was a mommy movie monday so the atmosphere was perfect for little ones. With you not feeling the best this was just what the Dr. ordered.

You relaxed in my lap while you munched on popcorn (a first as well) and watched Buzz and Woody in your PJs.

Dr Again

This a.m. you woke up with a swollen face. The left side was bigger and I wasn't sure if I was seeing things so I woke up daddy to see if he could verify my crazy. He did and off we went to see the Dr.

It helped when you said "Ouchie, Ouchie" and touched your face. So much easier than guessing.

Antibiotics and a swollen lymphoid later we are out of of the office and off to the pharmacy.

Hope you feel better soon!

Beach, Park and Park

From 3 parks to the beach we have spent a good amount of time outside this week. Oh and a quick trip to the zoo..

Dinner with the Family

After a long week Evan made it home early to go out to a family dinner. Mexican food was a hit with Miles. He ended up eating a ton of rice. beans and chips. My favorite part was that he was content in his seat the WHOLE TIME!

ROCKS

You love rocks so when we went to a playground in Colorado and they were everywhere you flopped down and "swam" in them. You filled your pockets and went down for a great nap after with rocks still in there.

20 Months

Today you are 20 months old. Only 4 months till you turn 2. Such a shocker to me.

Some of your new things are:

- You HATE HATE HATE bath time. I mean you scream "all done" over and over while you stand in the water and wash you as quick as I can. Let's hope you grow out of this. So far it is 3 weeks strong.

- Words! You have so many it boggles my mind. You put stuff together now like "Coco Food" or "Daddy Shoes" etc. Just this morning I had the shower running and you ran up and said "Daddy, bath... shower?" I was shocked.

- Fingers in the ears. You have started to plug your ears to hear the noise difference. You say all the words you know and laugh at the sounds as they change.

- Choo Choo Trains, Dinos and Buzz are all favorites right now.

- Bedtime is 7:30 and you are sleeping for about 11-13 hours a night. Still on one nap a day that is roughly 2 1/2 hours.

- Some of the favorite foods are peanut butter, pretzels, applesauce (still called apple juice), bananas and cereal.

- When you are tired you start to repeat a lot of words. Once I get you upstairs and near your bed you almost dive in at times. You cuddle with DT and Turtle and say Ni Night.  Other times you let me hold you for a few and drool all over my shoulder. 

- I still can't bring myself to cut your hair. Not sure when that will change. Until now I like your long locks.

Back in the Groove

Returning from Colorado and we are back in the groove of our normal week of play hard, get dirty and sleep deep.

Some snaps from our recent trip to the park and a few videos.

i heart faces - babies

I haven't entered in a while. When I saw this was the topic of the week I knew what shot I would have to enter. Sorry Miles it isn't you. It is your friend Kaeden that I took last month. He is going to kill the girls with those eyes. Check out all the baby submissions at I Heart Faces

For more of my stuff  and shots from Kaeden's Session you can check out my site or facebook page

Ready to fly!

Miles has learned the puppy dog face

Going down for naps is hard!

Swimming

Amazing pool in Denver. Miles got used to the water after 10 minutes and then played and played. One step closer to full on swimming.
