Day At The Museum

Little Jared

Jared came to Texas for Bryan's graduation. These pictures are from riding the boys' jeep at our house and going to the children's museum. I think he had a pretty good time doing both.

Tent Fun

Adam has been "making" tents lately. Okay, he really tries to do it and then I help him. He also has been laying blankets (or boxes) on the floor and running across them. He stacks pillows and blankets everywhere and jumps from them, onto them, whatever. Austin, again, has to do everything that Adam does but he is small and cannot do everything LIKE Adam and gets frustrated.

IT'S OFFICIAL

I recently received an e-mail notifying me that I am certified to graduate (passed all my classes) and to take the Texas bar. Life just got a little better.

the different FACES of ADAM

Adam likes to growl so capturing it with the camera was an obvious decision. The second photo is of him taking a picture with his hands (normally he does this with whatever he has in his hands but most recently he has found an camera that we no longer use). He is posing for the next 2 photos while drinking his juice with hand on hip. We tried to have him smile for the pictures but he refused and pretended to continue drinking after he was done until we quit taking pictures.

Uh-Oh!

Austin's "new" thing is saying uh-oh (kind of). Bryan saw it tonight and had to capture it with the camera. It is good that we capture these cute moments for me to remember so I don't remember the tantums that he throws (copy cat to older brother).

Splash Park June 28, 2006

For a few weeks we were going to the Splash Park pretty regularly. If you go around 5pm, there is virtually no one there. That is a plus when Austin thinks that he is big kid and big kids don't notice him because he is still really little. It is nice when H comes and watches Austin for me because then people don't come up to me and say rude things like "whose ever baby that is, I have already brought him down and he is probably going to go back up there" (near the trash can but they make it sound like he is headed to the parking lot or the busy street).
He loves to be in the water and his brother likes to play with water guns (filling them up at the drinking fountain). There is a photo of me filling up the water gun, but it is very unflattering as I did not know a picture was being taken. We will be going to the Splash Park tomorrow for a HUGE Visiting Teaching Potluck. Hopefully I will remember my camera, I have been quite forgetful lately.

my water

Austin is pretty sneaky and if I had not been taking pictures of this event, I probably would have given Austin the water bottle when he screamed when Adam held onto it. But instead I made Austin let go and he decided he did not want to be on the little sofa (I think the only reason he even sat down was to get that water). They went to bed soon after these photos were taken, so I was as happy as Austin is in the last photo.

"It's My Water Baby"

I can't remember what he ate but it was everywhere, so Bryan stripped him down and he climbed into the sink. It was a fight when we took him out. He loves the water.

Crib or No Crib?

Adam started climbing out of the crib and he ended up in bed with Austin. Then he figured out how to climb out and be out of any bed.


So Adam and Austin have switched beds, Adam is now in the portable crib. Hopefully Austin won't figure out how to climb out soon, at least not until I am ready for Adam to be in a big boy bed.
