Summer Fun

I know it has been WAY to long. I am so sorry. The days are flying by without even a blink of an eye, and then I see the pile up of pictures and it is one more thing to do. I love blogging but sometimes the amount of time it takes makes it hard to do. So needless to say I have some catching up to do. Therefore, stay tuned for the pictures of Easter. I will try to do that before Friday, we will see though.
Here is my good friend Ashley. She came by for a quick visit. We never have enough time to hang out, but love every second we do.

This is her newest joy, Saylor, who is now 6 months already! She made Zach look so big. Everyone is growing so fast.

Here is everyone playing. All 4 of our kids. Zach is checkin out Saylor and letting her know how the jumpy seat works.
This is just a random pic to show you and to document, that Zach loves watching the washer and dryer. He races to pull everything out of it while I load, then watches the soap and water spin around. Hilarious.
I just took a couple of quick shots when the sun was coming in. It just looked like a moment in time, and also a moment when sharing a toy wasnt such a big deal.

Noah showing Zach the ropes of the fire truck.


Here are some pics of my dads bday party. We had such a good time seeing the whole family together.
And here is the whole family.
Mr. Charlie Chaplin after Papa gave him some of the chocolate cake to eat.

Another random pic. The day was so nice and Grandpa stopped by in his fun car.
So this was really funny. Noah heard Zach talking and crying in his room one morning and went in to be with him. He turned on all the lights and turned off the fan. Then I could hear from my room Noah singing to Zach. "Finkle, Finkle little tar..." So I actually got it on video, but cannot figure out how to post it. It was really cute. Here is Noah at the height of his performance.

That then lead to wanting his picture taken with Zach in the rocking chair. Where he comes up with this stuff is any ones guess!


But with the beautiful weather, we got out on the bike for the first time in a long time. Zach loved his buckle seat. And the fact that he was out with his brother doing the same thing. He always wants to be with Noah doing the same thing. So this was fun.
Noah was on his red rider bike, but then decided to go for his motorcycle bike, which then needed his helmet of course.
Here they are before the bike change. So sweet. I love these days!

Here we are on the way back home. We rode down to a garage sale and back. It was a far ride, but we had all the time in the world so we stopped by a park too. Love lazy Saturdays. They are far and few between!
This lead to a great time outside that night...


With Noah in his underwear. Long story here is that we went full force (3rd time) to potty train him. But there was no marked improvement after 2 weeks and several, several explosive diapers/baths later, we decided to wait it out. But in the mean time he was only wanting to be outside in his backwards undies, with his shoes on. We got video of this also. The undies have to be backwards because that is where the picture of spider man is and he wants to see it at all times. So logical this one is!


Zach enjoying the sun. Side note: Zach's big feddish right now is paper. Yeah, he finds it and stores wads of it in his mouth. Only if he has time to eat that much, otherwise it goes down the hatchet.


The Pic of the Week..Does it get any better than this? Really...

Those pics are great Ang! I especially love the backwards undies. And the charlie chapman cake incident. I can see your family getting a lot of laughs out of that one!
