A Good Helper

Tyler can be such a good little helper! Today he helped Daddy mow the front yard. Daddy might have been able to do it faster by himself, but it wouldn't have been nearly as much fun!

 
 

Crab Legs, Anyone?

We had crab legs for dinner tonight and Caleb helped with the cooking. They sure were good!

 
 

A Clean Car for Mommy

Today we helped daddy wash the car for mommy. Caleb was a big help with the hose and Tyler liked washing the tires! Then daddy turned the hose on us!

Garett has a great smile (just like his big brothers!)




Moving the boys upstairs (not for good, just for fun!)

Garett's Cereal

Garett got his first taste of cereal today. Here are his thoughts:

The bite:



Processing:



It's a hit!



More please!

Luau Shirts

We had a luau to go to tonight, so mommy thought this would be a good time to show off our hawaiian shirts!

Caleb's last day of school

Today was the last day of school for Caleb. He really seemed to have a lot of fun this year and I know he enjoyed his teachers. He's learned so much, like how to spell his name and now he's working on writing his name!

A picture from the first day:



And from the last day:

Tyler's new roommate

Yep, Tyler has a roommate again! Garett moved into the crib and the arrangement seems to be working out great. Garett must like the big bed- he's now sleeping 12 hours at night!

But he's still trying to figure out what those things are on his bed:



And what does Tyler think about having a roommate again? Well, you have to find him to ask him!

Emily's birthday

This morning we went to our friend, Emily's, 3rd birthday. We had so much fun!

The Chesapeake Jubilee

The boys had a blast this evening! Tyler got to ride some rides for the first time and really enjoyed himself! First the boys rode a race car ride:





Later they rode a crazy monkey ride with daddy (which is fitting):





And they got to visit with a goat:



We finished off the night with fireworks. We had a great night, but it was a late one!

Meeting Clifford

Today we took Evan and Josiah to meet Clifford!

Caleb getting a hug:


Tyler's turn:


All four of the big boys together:

Soccer!

Caleb has had a good time learning how to play soccer this year. It's a pretty low-key kind of thing, but he seems to have fun running around.

Stretching:


Kicking a goal:

Reading to Garett

Garett really likes to have his big brother Caleb read to him:



Yep, he's reading Nemo to him!

Tyler's new bed

Tyler got to sleep in his new bed all weekend. He's done a really great job- he doesn't get out of bed after we say goodnight and he doesn't get up in the morning until someone goes and gets him. He's also taken all of his naps there too, and just really seems to like his new bed! Of course, there are pictures!

Showing off:


Do I really get to stay here?


Fast asleep!


Mommy can't believe he's already ready for a big bed, but it was time! Caleb moved upstairs to his new room and does really well up there by himself. Garett is still in the basinett in mommy and daddy's room, but he'll move to the crib when he's sleeping all the way through the night.

Bye Jack!

(And Hillary and JD)

Jack will be moving away for a little while and we'll miss him a lot! Today all the moms got together and Jack and Tyler had their last lunch together for a while. Here's the attempt at a picture of all of us together!

Hiding

Garett thinks he's pretty sneaky- he tried hiding in the blanket tonight (with daddy's help):



And his disappointment when he was found:

Big Boy Bath!

Garett got to take a big bath with his big brothers- he really likes the water! Caleb did a great job helping hang on to Garett while mommy washed him. Tyler did a great job listening and not splashing too much so he didn't scare Garett!

Just chillin'

That's what Caleb likes to do once he's ready to go for the day. He has his "spikey hair" fixed and just hangs out waiting on the rest of us!

Garett 2 Months

Already Garett is 2 months old! He had a doctor's appointment this morning and weighs 12 pounds, 12 ounces and is 23 inches long. After his appointment, he took some pictures with his big brothers.
