Grandma and Pi



Grandma and Pi came to see us a couple of weeks ago and the brought gifts. Pi and Daddy worked hard on Alyssa's birthday present, they built her a sand box. This helps me because she plays in there and not quite as often in the garden.

She had so much fun playing with Pi in her new sandbox! Thank you!



ALyssa played in the water and then would run to Grandma all soaked.



Grandma made the darling little hats for them and Alyssa loves wearing them, Nathan will wear it as long as you hold his hands down so he can't get it off.



Can you tell that the kids love their Grandma?

You can always count on Grandma and Pi to give the kids their first taste of icecream or popsicles. Yes, he got both.

Disneyland Again


Now that Micheal is off work for the summer we wanted to get to Disneyland as a family. Alyssa's favorite rides are the Teacups and the Merry-go-round. When we all went together on the teacups Michael had us spinning so fast that Nathan came out a bit grey. He took Alyssa again so they could go faster, maybe a little too fast.




Nathan's favorite ride is Small World. He wiggled so much trying to see everything I thought he might dive in the water. The people behind us also enjoyed his singing, which he does a lot of these days. He also enjoyed the Merry-go-round, he sits up and holds on tight with a big grin on his face. We couldn't get Alyssa smiling cause every time we try to get a picture she gives us a great big scowl.

Peas and Carrots

Alyssa likes gardening even more now that she gets to eat the veggies.

Catching Up Again


Nathan is now sitting on his own!
Until Alyssa knocks him over.


Alyssa watches me when I get ready for the day. She now puts on lipstick, face powder and deoderant.


Our little man is always smiling, he is such a happy baby.

Hats



Finger painting!

We had a blast with the finger paints. I painted Alyssa's hands and feet to make a footprint so she had to paint her legs too.

Nathan entertained himself with his wet paper towel, this is his toy of choice these days.

Hula Hoop


We found a little hula hoop at a yard sale and the kids love it. If Nathan gets his hands on it Alyssa is quick to snatch it away(just like any other toy). After bathtime she runs away from us because she knows when the pjs go on it is time for bed.

A day at the park


We all had fun flying the kite while Daddy took pictures.



When we started packing up Alyssa started to run with the kite trying to get it to fly again.



Nathan doesn't get too excited about the swings but he doesn't mind them.

The dogs had fun barking at the kids on scooters.
