A Little Video for Someone Special....

Just wanted to let you know we are thinking of you! Lots of hugs!!!

Mill Pond

The weather has been so nice lately we thought we would head downtown to the mill pond after dinner. One of Aiden's favorite things lately is to pop a bag of popcorn and go feed the ducks and geese, last week we even had the pleasure of feeding a swan. The playground wasn't that busy so we thought we would play there first.

Swinging on the Swings...




(such a cute picture, now I need to figure out how to photoshop out the giant booger!)



Things after the swings got ugly so we decided it was time to just go feed the ducks..







Two geese coming over for a snack...


After feeding the ducks and geese we were off to dairy queen. Along the way we spotted a little chipmunk on a log..


After ice cream we walked the boardwalk for a bit trying to see some fish and also to take the long way back to the car so someone didn't see the P-L-A-Y-G-R-O-U-N-D again. At the edge of the mill pond, the water rushes down some rocks and then heads underground. Aiden always asks to see the waterfall.



I had to take a picture of the water heading under the sidewalk and then under the street because Gary always comments how scary it would be to be sucked under...

Always in Hand...

All these words can be used to describe the relationship that Aiden has with his Lightning McQueen car. It's with him at all times. He has a few "Lightnings" but the beat up and dinged one is his most favorite. Naps are even taken with Lightning in hand. We have battles with Grandma on days Aiden goes to her house because Lightning and his gang must tag along for the day. By the time I come to pick him up most are "lost" and the hunt begins. Recently it took Grandma two days of searching to find them all. In case you were wondering they were found in the spare room, under the bed, surrounded by blocks.

Aiden and I were taking it easy this afternoon (doctor's orders) so I got out the video camera to catch Mr. Ham. He surprises me everyday with something new, I don't know where he learns some of this...

Another Trip To The......

ZOO....

Yes, I can admit it now, we are addicted to the zoo. I actually bought a membership yesterday while we were there. The weather was gorgeous yesterday so Jessica and I took the boys to the zoo. Papa and PapaMom met us up there in time for lunch and a few more hours of walking around. By the end of the trip I was waddling pretty much the whole time and had thoughts of kicking Kyle out of the double stroller Jessica had rented.

Since I've posted a million pictures of our zoo trips I thought this time I'd only post pictures of us and not the animals. A monkey looks like a monkey anyway right?



The Boys on a sunny day


Every time I went to take a picture of David he started posing. He is such a ham!
