Noah doing the mopping

Yes he is a big Geordi La Forge fan.

and so is Noah.

Uh-oh

Yep another uh-oh

At least he is cute.

Cooking legos

The cooking needed some bling.

I have hands.

Spinning!

Still Spinning!

I couldn't open this, he offered to use his muscles.

Passing something back to his brother.

This game could go on all day!

I am pretty sure he walked better in my heels than I do.

Game time.

Hello! How are you. (yes we are teaching them proper phone manners)

Bad morning πŸ™

Playing with Paul

Scooting with Annie.

Move over Paul!

Refusing to sleep on a long ride home.

Noah refused too.

He shouldn't be able to do that, yea we tightened his straps up immediately!

Hot Wheels Time

Remember all the way back in October of 2008 when Matt excitedly bought some hot wheels? He couldn’t wait to play with them with our kids. At the time we were still anxiously awaiting a referral and would wait 4 more months.

Well almost 2 years later he finally broke out those hot wheels. The boys were super excited, but Ezra was beside himself with excitement. I wish we would have thought to get the camera out sooner. He just ran around screaming and squealing with delight.

Here is a video after he calmed down:

Noah was a teething, clingy boy so you just hear him start to whine at the end of the second video. Here is a pic of how he looked:

Mad I wouldn't let him hold the camera

Busy Texting

It's for you!

Eyes

First swim of the summer.

His man-bag.

Cousins

Cellphone and a drink, he's ready to drive.

My children are weird, it is HOT, why are blankets necessary?

Momma's shoes

Climbing in the toy box

That's it he is cooking dinner from now on!

Another helper, or someone who just wants to climb?

Water fun.

Noah figured out there are shelves in the cabinets

Ez had to give it a try.

Graduation

Can you believe it? My babies graduated from the baby room at church. They are now in the toddler room. Which means they are starting to do crafts, sit at a table and have snack, and listen (hopefully) to a story. Here are some pics of their first crafts at church, crowns.


Do you know how hard it is to get a picture of two toddlers wearing crowns on their heads? Anyway after I stopped taking pictures they started taking the foam stickers off and trying to eat them. Sigh, the crowns are now safely in the trash.

Kazoo time

My boys love music, good thing I have apparently been blessed with a tolerance for hearing a lot of musical creations throughout the day. Here’s a video including kazoos, piano, and a little singing.

Garage Sale Finds

On my way to work in the community garden this morning I saw someone setting up a garage sale. They had a little slide that I thought would be perfect for this summer (inside). But I passed because I was on my bike and on my way to work in the garden. 2.5 hours later it was still there, so I told the lady I would be back with the car. Best $10 I spent this summer. The boys love it. Now they have something to climb on besides the furniture! It will be so nice to have since it is already unbearable hot out after 10 am every day.

Immediately had to try it out.

Look at those happy faces! (ignore the messy house)

Also scored an art easel for $3!

My Sous Chef

Noah loves his kitchen, and he loves cooking when I am cooking. I moved the little kitchen into my kitchen a few weeks ago and it has been a big hit. I love watching him work so hard to be like mommy. It’s so cute and really makes spending time in the kitchen more fun.

Here’s a short video of him filling up his pot.

He got oil out of the pantry and "poured it" into his pan.

9:40 am and out cold!

Noah getting surprised.

Can you now guess why Noah was surprised?

Noah getting squirted.

Now getting squirted by himself.

They made themselves a mud-hole.

I'm all wet and muddy, can I please get in your lap?

Again?!? I can't tell if he loves or hates it, because he gets mad, but then he keeps doing it.

Ezra seeing if mommy is telling through truth when she said that was ouchie.

Carter's new spot, underneath the play structure.

Grandpa and a laptop, what could be better?

Ganging up on him of course!

A boy and his (neighbor's) laptop!

Ez knows what he wants.

Helping clean up the oil slick he caused.

Mom do we really have to wait for them to cook?
