Catching up

So life with 2 kids is a bit busier than with 1.  I'd even argue it's more than just twice as busy.  So sometimes it takes me a while to get the pictures downloaded off the camera and then it takes even longer to get a post up, but that doesn't mean we're not having any fun over here!  

Max has a new trick every few days and Jack's brain is working so hard these days, I'm often amazed at what he's put together or thought about.  It's so much fun to watch them both!

Jack loves to pretend.  A few weeks ago he was in the living room playing by himself.  We returned to find this....

He was playing trash man!  He'd gathered up all the "trash" he could find for the back of the truck and then gotten a driver's seat and was on his way! Below you can see he's added a passenger seat.  Eventually there were 3 seats, because he needed lots of helpers on the trash truck!



Max is definitely on the move.  He's not crawling forward yet, but he gets where he wants to go, sliding, crawling backwards, scooting, rolling...whatever it takes.  He's a man on a mission.



Jack has a new trick too.  At his 3 year checkup the doctor asked if he could hop on one foot and he refused to try.  In his defense I think he was just over being asked to do things and tired of performing, but at any rate the other morning he said "Momma, look at me" and showed me this new trick...


One of the many things we adore about our neighborhood is that we have a library.  It's an easy walk over and it's newly renovated and so nice and cheery. We love going to the library.  All of us.





One of the other reasons we love our neighborhood (there are MANY!) is that we are so close to the river.  It's literally just steps away and there's always so much fun stuff to see down there.









Hope you're all having just as much fun at your house!  We're off on a BIG adventure tomorrow...stay tuned!
