Puddles, sticks and a fence

That's all it took to entertain the boys this afternoon. Oh, plus a little sunshine. It was actually a little cool out so we had to change after the puddle jumping got old. They went right back out to tromp around in the backyard and "say hi" to our neighbor through the fence. No telling how much longer that fence will make it but Ben sure loves peeking through to see if Norma is working in her yard. He sends her gifts through the slats - things like grass and leaves. No rain forecasted for tonight - maybe those puddles will dry up. One thing is for sure, we will find something equally exciting to do tomorrow. Can't wait.





ps. That makes three, JJM. Top that.

Guess who came to play?


Yep, that's Beckett. The boys had a great time playing in the yard. Grammy drove by and dropped off a huge bottle of bubble fun and a new bubble wand. Then Jessica pulls an amazing bubble "blowing" machine out of her trunk and we were set. Great weather, great bubbles and great friends. Thanks for coming to play!

Bubble Fun

We are good. The boys are playing together more and more which is wonderful. We switched their rooms around this past weekend and Ben is now sleeping in a queen bed (he was in a twin). He looks so little in that big bed. He was a little concerned at first because his "monkey sheets" weren't going to fit the big bed. He got used to it pretty quick when he saw that ALL his animals could sleep with him. Liam is sleeping through the night - usually about 11 hours. That is amazing. He appears to be dropping his morning nap. He is still trying to adjust but it sure makes the days easier to plan and more fun for everyone. We are looking forward to more trips to the zoo and outdoor fun this spring.
The boys love playing with bubbles. Here are their sweet smiling faces.
