10 Months Later

I can hardly believe that 10 months ago our family was blessed with this adorable little dinosaur. He has brought us so much happiness, so many laughs, and so much hope for the future. It is hard to believe how much can change in a year when I look at how much changes in a week sometimes. Here are some highlights from our week.

Tate's new napping spot! We built a fort and it was the spot to nap for 2 whole days. Then the allure of playing was to much to refrain from and all of mommies hopes and dreams of productive afternoons were crushed. Until I discover another exciting nap adventure..

Daddy showing Tate the skills it takes to ride a bike. It worked because Tate can now peddle. I wouldn't exactly say he's proficient, but he tries hard for about 5 minutes each day.

Ian eating; his favorite thing to do. Boy does this kiddo love food. My favorite part of the picture is his hair blowing in the wind. I cut his mullet off in the back but I'm kind of fond of the spike on top, at least for a couple more weeks.

Check out these balance skills. He could explore the sandbox all day long. He also learned that sand is not delicious through trial by error and he hasn't tried it again since!

We had so much fun at the park the other day as a family. It's been a while since we went together and I loved seeing Josh playing with he mini-mes.

Tate was teaching Ian about belly buttons. It's this type of moment that makes parenting so much fun.

We went and watched the Back Water Gamblers last Wednesday. It was pretty amazing what they could do. We took a box of minion graham crackers and the boys were content for a whole hour. I don't think Ian even watched the water straight in front of us because he was so intently focused on that box of delicious messy minion goodness.

I have realized now that with my new phone and the ease of taking pictures I need to get better about blogging more often. I keep getting overwhelmed with the amount of wonderful memories I want to share!
