Photo Dump

I finally had a chance to go through the pictures on the camera and figured out there's nothing too exciting on there! Here are a few pictures though of what we've been up to.

Here are the boys and I the last time they were at our old house...Blake doesn't look too happy about it.

The boys love to take a bath in the big jacuzzi tub at our new house. They like to turn the jets on which makes for all of these bubbles! Devin and Blake went to the Pacers/Bulls game last month. They went without any tickets, the game ended up being sold out, and somehow they wound up with 9th row seats! This was the highlight of Blake's night...he loves Boomer and he got to see him up close! Devin and Blake at the game... Mr. Big Stuff riding his airplane...

Warm weather...finally!

Grandma took the boys and me to the Shrine Circus a couple of weeks ago. Blake absolutely loved it, but Cole thought that walking around outside was way cooler. So he and I spent the evening circling the Pepsi Colliseum while Blake and Grandma enjoyed the circus. I think Cole wishes he could get his hands on that cotton candy...

Blake even got to ride an elephant at the circus!

Blake went bowling for the first time at his friend Aaron's birthday party. He had a great time and keeps asking if he can do it again sometime. I just can't believe

what a big boy he is! He bowled all by himself and was so proud! Cheese!

We're Back!

So I have been terrible about posting pictures of the boys lately and keeping everyone updated on what's going on. There's a couple of reasons: #1, the new house is keeping us very busy with little projects that we want to do. Devin has been working like crazy to get it all painted and is fixing small things here and there. Our next big project is going to be to replace all of the vinyl flooring on the main floor so that will be a big job--for my dad and Devin! My mom and I will have to get the boys out of the house so we will be forced to do something fun!:) #2, I haven't had time to edit any of my pictures which = no pictures to post. My goal is to work on them sometime this week. I have quite a few on my camera, I just need to get them edited and ready to go. I am hoping to get some good pictures of the house too so I can post those as well.

The following pictures are from Blake and Cole's friend Evie's birthday party that we went to a couple of weeks ago. It was at Gymboree and the kids all had a great time. I didn't take these pictures, so I can't take credit. I just thought it would be a chance for me to actually have something to post. Thanks for sharing the pictures with me, Miranda!

Look how big he is getting! Cole went from baby to big boy overnight it seems. He is talking up a storm--I think we are going to have another chatterbox on our hands. Some of the words he says are: Dada, Blake, Pa Pa, hot, Dora, backpack (he's a big Dora fan!), milk, trash (he is constantly walking around the house and picking up crumbs and taking them to the trash), dog, belly button, eye, spoon, peas (please), cue me (excuse me), up, down, ball, baba (banana), bed, bath, bubble...that's all I can think of for now. The list gets longer every day! All of the kids enjoying parachute time...

Blake had such a great time running around Gymboree. He got to play with his best buddy, Aaron, so he was a happy guy. He seemed to remember when we used to go to Gymboree when he was ~20 months old because he kept talking about how we used to play with bubbles and go down the slides. Blake has a memory like no one I've ever met, so I have no doubt that he does remember when we used to go. He's a special little guy.

Sweet little man...
