He went swimming!!!

Yes it finally happened. No pictures because I was solo but here is Miles wiped out after.

It started with him throwing in the water gun and reaching in to get it. Then we splashed for a while. I will admit it took about 25 minutes to get him in the water but patience prevailed and in the end he was leaping off the edge of the pool into my arms, blowing bubbles in the water and kicking to the side of the pool to get out on the steps by himself. I was smiling ear to ear. The only thing that would have made it better was if Daddy was there.

Lemon Moon

Lunch with Daddy after Baby Gym today. At first Daddy was mad you wouldn't share your fries. I think he got over it. I hope you got some potato with all the ketchup you ate today. Either way, a busy day wore you out and by the end of it all you wanted to do was hang out in your diaper and watch Madagascar 2 with me for 20 minutes before bed.

Rocks!!!

You are obsessed with rocks. Sometimes I can't tell if you want to go for a walk or get rocks. It sounds almost the same! I should just assume you want to pick up rocks until you grow out of this phase. You diligently pick them up and hand them over to me.

Spoon

Dinner on the patio is a must in summer. You ate your yogurt like a big boy with your spoon like a pro. You fell on the playground today and cut up your nose. Looks like you got in a fight. You should see the other guy. Little video at the bottom as well.

Even Better!!!

You had a bath today at 9:30 in the am. I didn't mind because you WANTED ONE! I was able to fill up the tub and you were all smiles. Makes me happy!

Playdate

Anna came over the other morning for a few hours. You guys giggled as you both walked up and down the stairs. I love that you have a little friend that visits often.

One Step Closer

One step closer to conquering bath time! Last night when I was putting up a new shower curtain you climbed into the bath fully clothed. You wanted to play. YES! I thought. I was sure you hated the tub but even if you played in it fully clothed it would be a big step. So I brought in a few toys. Then you asked for the water to be turned on and to take your clothes off. AWESOME!

You weren't a fan of the plug so we ended up taking more of a shower/bath. You loved the shower and I was laughing as you tried to reach the water. Ahhh moments like this make me realize that the hard times are only for so long.

Back!!

Mommy is back in action! Missed you cute face.

Obsessed with toy story

And yes he is watching toy story

Boys Weekend Day 3

Today was all about the Zoo!! We saw tons of animals and made all there noises.

Boys Weekend Day 2

Park, Soccer, Nap, Soccer, Dinner with the entire Hutchison family (in from london), late night (8pm) playtime with Joshua!

Boys weekend, day 1

We had such a great start to the boys weekend. First we went to the park and played on the slides, then we played with the soccer ball and watched a kid flying a kite. We then headed to our favorite sushi spot Kanpai and ate Crispy Albacore, Edamame, Teriyaki Chicken, and Green Tea Ice Cream!

Boys weekend has begun!

Bye Bye Love

I am heading out of town for the weekend. A first for me. I put you to bed tonight and already feel odd.

I am sure I will miss you like crazy.

Shots from today... Dirty after a cliff bar and fixated after bath on Home on the Range. You kept asking for "more neigh!" as you loved the horses.

A Furry Baby

I was about to give him away today but I realize it is hard to sit backseat to Miles. I promise to give you more attention and love Roscoe!

Both these shots were taken in the last 2 weeks. I picked up a new blanket one week and a new pillow today for the couch. Rosoce claims them as his own within hours of them landing in the house.
