Trip to Northern Neck

Charlie and Bennett really had fun playing with their new friends, Wynne and Olivia.

Fun Time at the Treehouse

Lately, there have been many fun happenings and the daycare - The Treehouse. We have to keep the calendar on the fridge so we don't forget things like Sunglasses Day or Music Day (bring an instrument, luckily we had egg shakers and a harmonica). This past week there was Teddy Bear Picnic. We had a box lunch (thankfully indoors) with the kids and our teddy bears. My Mom sent my teddy from when I was little. It was pretty worn looking but he made an appearance nonetheless. Below are pictures of our fun times and a reminder of how lucky we are that the boys are 1 block away.

The boys got buzz cuts. It is officially summer!

Swim Lessons

Swim lessons have begun and this year they are conveniently located at our pool. Coach Dee comes twice a week. The shark kick boards are a big hit! Now if we can just go under water with out any tears...

Share Day for Bennett

It was an easy decision when Bennett was asked what toy he wanted to bring to school for share day. His baby of course! I need to mention that Aunt Natalie got the boys American Girls twins last year and they have definitely been loved and played with. I was worried that the ridiculous price tag for these dolls would be too much on such rowdy boys but they really enjoy them. Bennett, however, LOVES his baby Benji. Benji has a blanket and bottle and even doll diapers. He has no problem standing up in front of the class to tell them about Benji.

That is where the sharing stopped. No one was allowed to touch or play with Benji. Baby steps... literally. You can see the death grip on Benji in the picture. So funny.

T-Ball starts next year, but we are already in training.
