Hot Days..

So, it is hotter than it has been...I guess we have are getting used to our new weather already. We don't have AC..maybe next year...so today it hit 83 in the house by the evening...not really bad when I think I used to set the AC in CA to 79 on the HOT days....I can't complain. And, Todd was in the attic getting stuff down and putting away...it was probably 100 up there...

Here they are tonight enjoying the evening. Just hanging out playing. Clayton can now can hold on well enough to not fall down...

Swin lesson - day 2

Yes, that would be MY son leaching onto the instructor. Refused to get dressed this morning knowing we were going to lessons. Finally got him dressed....showed him his treat if he got in the water....so thought we would make it today. NOPE....had to drag him to the waters edge...hand him to instructor and he screamed the rest of the 1/2 hour lesson. She held him and took him to deeper, then her helper took him and sat with him on the steps trying to get him to kick, etc...nothing! He saw me and wanted "mommy"....finally I went over and tried to get him in....nothing....reminded him of the thomas prize and he put a foot in (the timer went off and we had to get out)....so, we will try again tomorrow.

Daddy's Helper

We finally had to add child safety locks to some stuff in the kitchen...Clayton is now getting into everything!

Boys, Boys, and more Boys

Reese and Carsten spent the afternoon with us and the evening...we had fun...there was a band...

And art studio:

Carsten, the Birthday Boy!

And later, the three amigo's playing with the tonka trucks!

Next time we will do a sleepover....they had so much fun...

Clayton

Let's build a fort!

Aunt Dana was here today watching the boys while I had a Dr. appt....they made a fort under the kitchen table, covered it with a blanket or two and had a fun time! We are excited to have Reese and Carsten over tomorrow...need to think up something fun as tomorrow is Carsten's Birthday....

Justin's Thomas room

We finished his room last weekend...added the decals (removable) this past week. He loves his trains.....when Reese and Carsten came to visit...first thing was "Reese, Carsten, wanna see my trains"....too cute!
