Welcome, Cousin!

We have a new family addition - Max and Wyatt's Baby Cousin Julian. We can only imagine the havoc that three boys will wreck at future family gatherings. Lots of mischief in the making, for sure. Welcome, Julian - and congratulations to the brand new parents!

The boys got lots of hugs and kisses during Grandma's visit in June!

Museum of Fun

We finally made our way to the Children's Museum in May, and the boys loved it. They may quickly grow out of it, but I think we still have a few more years before that's the case. We had to drag them from one area to another. And each time, they went bonkers in the new area. From grocery shopping to space ships, to the water works room to their own pint-sized diner (where a bunch of hard-working tiny people prepared make-believe food for their exhausted parents). But the place that kept drawing them back was a sand table with funnels and shifters. Bliss for two boys, and bliss for mom and dad who didn't have to worry about the mess.

This is the first time that Wyatt fell asleep with a bottle still in his mouth. He was out cold within seconds of getting strapped in his car seat.

Ready to RUMBLE

Max has a buddy at daycare, and we paid him a visit last month. The play date was a huge hit, in part because his buddy had a motorized ATV. Well, almost an ATV - it doesn't quite get through picket fences despite a 3-year old's best attempt to crash through it. Those things can go surprisingly fast, but Max, once past his initial trepidation about his buddy's driving skills, loved it.

 

 

Bedtime Bedlam

Seriously, it's June already? It is getting harder to keep up with the posts. I don't know if it's because the weather is nicer and we spend more time outside, or the boys are so frustratingly fast that it is pointless to get a picture (and the dinner time photos - the only time that they are forced to stay in a same spot for more than 2 minutes - are too boring to post. Same mess, different food). Below are some pictures of the bedtime craziness and our growing Power Rangers (whose super powers include climbing on top of Dad and flinging themselves off the bed).
