Big Boys at the Park



With temperatures in the 50's yesterday, we brought the boys to the park to enjoy the warm weather. It was the first time that they had been to the park since they started walking! It was a WHOLE new world for these guys. Look at the picture of Tommy at the top! That attitude and swagger pretty much sums up the day. They were the big men on campus - checking out all the kids, hanging in the sandbox, going down the slide and loving their independence.
We played so hard that when we got home in the afternoon we ALL went down for a great two-hour nap. :)

Morning with the boys...



I got these great shots this morning before we got dressed to head to the park. The boys were really excited about our big day. So cute. Top photo is Cole munching on an apple in their little playhouse, bottom is Tommy in the forefront, Cole in background.

Table for Two

For Christmas, Uncle Jerry and Aunt Kay sent the boys a giftcard to Target (our favorite store!) After battling colds and being stuck inside, it was so nice to finally get out last week and take the boys shopping. When we hit the toy aisles, I let the boys shop the way I do. We put everything we wish we could have in the cart...kind of mentally buy them. Then when we're finished...we put about 90% of it back.

Anyway, when we hit the aisle that had this table, I was so excited. It was exactly what we were looking for! Snack time for the boys had meant roaming around holding apples or crackers. We were hoping to find something small just for the boys. The lucky table made its way all the way to the registers!

It is now the boys favorite place to sit and play. Tommy likes to line his blueberries up in the groove and eat them one at a time all the way down the line. Cole brings his magna doodle over and plops down to color. It's so cute. Here are some pictures of our new "table for two".


Moments after I finished putting it together, the boys sat down and had snack time.



The cover comes off and there is a water play table inside. The boys had a blast splashing in the kitchen. They were soaked!


After a change of clothes and some relaxing down time, the boys enjoyed chicken nuggets and carrots sitting at their new table.

Fun on the couch....

Today's new discovery was that by moving a few cushions on the couch, we not only created a really cool tunnel to crawl under...but also a really fun trampoline to jump on. The boys were so funny jumping. Their giggles are amazing. I let them have their fun for a little while.

*Disclaimer - the cushions have actually been removed from the couch and placed in front of them. So they are jumping on springs and have a cushion to fall on just in case. :)

Cracker?
