A lovely day with family

Blowing bubbles at Gran and Papaws.  Notice the tongue out with concentration. :)

Now THIS is how you blow bubbles! 

Hanging out with Daddy 

 Not in the mood for a picture...

What a look

Another afternoon in the pool...

Another afternoon spent in the pool.  I think a lot of our afternoons this summer will look like this. :) (that's Evie in the background)

I wasn't sure we were going to be able to make this work with the new pool.  Letting some air out of the top ring seemed to do the trick!

Hanging out by the pool with Mommy

A new pool!

So we upgraded our blow up pool this year.  I got a bigger one since Nathan was starting to outgrow his at the end of last summer.  So, we got it blown up and tried it out today.  Lots of fun!

Nathan, checking out the new pool

So much fun! 

And Mommy too...

 I tried to get Nathan to sit with us in this picture too.  He, however, wanted nothing to do with it. :) 

Brothers

Having a blast!

Connor

Connor really enjoyed playing in the pool today too. (That would be my leg he's holding onto.  He's still a little tipsy when he sits!)

Connor pushing up

Connor pushed up on all fours for the first time today!  Big boy :)

He looks like he's ready to take off already!

Hands and Teeth

We sent him in the bathroom to wash his hands.  Nathan thought he'd brush his teeth while he was there too.

Playing

Connor playing on Nathan's floor.

I can't take a picture of Connor without big brother getting into it pretty quickly! :)

Happy happy!

To the moon

Nathan was standing on one of our ottoman cubes telling us that he was going to turn on the fan and make it go "round and round" and then it was going to take him to the moon.

So Daddy helped him :)

As I'm typing this Nathan just looked at the picture and said, "I'm flying up to the moon!"

Cheese!

Such a ham!

Daddy and the Boys

BIg boy

Now that he's starting to sit up a little I've been putting Connor on this little chair to play.  He loves the music and lights!

Playin'

Brothers playing

What?

Happy Mother's Day

A quick shot of me with the boys on Mother's Day.  (Nathan had not been up long!)

4 Generations

 The boys with their Great Grandma

Wagon Ride

Nathan's matchbox cars took several trips around the kitchen island in this little wagon.

6 months old

Well, my Connor was 6 months old yesterday.  He's staying up in the 75-90 percentile with his height and weight.  He was 20 lbs 2 oz and 27 1/2 inches long.  He checked out great at his well baby visit and is doing great with his new ear tubes.  We've already noticed he's making more noise with his "talking" now.  We expect to see him really improve now that his ears are finally clear. (after 2 months of ear infections!)

Me and my Nathan

Big boy

Nathan is such a big boy now.  He even pedals his bike!  (Although it's easier to just "run" while sitting on it)

Helping Daddy

Nathan was so proud that he was helping Daddy mow.  Very sweet to watch. :)

Brothers

Nathan really loved on Connor when we got home from getting his tubes this morning.  You'd think he hadn't seen him in days!  It was very sweet.

Messy boy

Connor's first attempt at a teething biscuit.  He really enjoyed it, but oh the mess. :)

Silly, Silly

I just love this picture.  The look on his face is priceless!
