Adam wanting to pee off the deck, again.

"One flower is for you and the other one is for me".

Boys silly crawling.



Sticks, leaves, and tractors.

Jacob thinks his stick makes a good hat on Mommy.

I love the boys expressions in this picture.

Cute smiles!

He got wet after helping me wash their slide.



Jacob came into our bedroom around 8am. We lay in bed until Adam woke up around 8:30. Jacob played peek-a-boo with Adam by hiding out of his bedroom and peeking in. Yesterday Jacob started saying, “Hi Bacon!” a lot. When I asked him where he’d heard that, he told me “Raffi Radio”. This morning as we listened to the song “Kitchen Sing Sing” song on the Raffie Radio cd, I heard the words, “pie baking”. Then Jacob said, “hi bacon!” After breakfast the boys played around with their trucks. Then we read some books. I got out the Little People toys for Adam to play with while Jacob and I played with the cash register. Then we joined Adam on the floor playing with the Little People things. After snack time we went outside to play on the deck. The boys had fun pushing their trucks around out there. We also brought out some balls to play with. We played ring around the rosie and then sang the hokey pokey song. It was funny to watch Adam as he tried to copy the dance moves to that song. Jacob asked if we could eat lunch outside. The boys helped me make sandwiches and we had pretzels. After lunch we went out to the front yard to play. I sat in the leaves and enjoyed watching the boys play in them. Can't wait til the rest fall and we rake them into a huge pile. They had fun pushing their trucks around and found some sticks to play with. Then Adam took my hand and pulled me towards the swing set asking, “wing, pease”. Jacob played in his sand while I gave Adam pushes on the swing. Jacob was excited to show me the grasshopper he had caught. By the time we went inside it was already snack time. I read Adam a couple books before tucking him in for his nap. Jacob and I cuddled on the couch while reading some books. Then we lay down and rested. When we got up Jacob watched his bulldozer video. I prepared a meatloaf and peeled potatoes. Adam sat on the counter and watched me peel the potatoes as he ate his cracker. I set the peeled potatoes by the sink and Jacob washed them and put them in the pot for me. Jared came home around 5pm. We went outside to spray the hornet’s nest. Jacob collected the eggs. Then he and Daddy took food over to bait the trap. Once back inside, Jacob pretended to be “animal rescuers!” He put all his stuffed animals into the “thorn bushes (the dog bed)” and drove his dump truck to rescue them saying, “were animal rescuers!” In a book we got in the cheerios box, the kids are animal rescuers – they rescue a manned wolf pup from the picker and thorn bushes. Jared had class tonight. The boys and I took a drive to the pet store. We had fun walking around the store. Then we had our fish water tested. We took home some new fish. Jacob found a couple toads as we were walking to the chicken coop tonight. He wanted to tell Daddy right away when we got inside. The boys played with their train until "pj time". Then we all cuddled in the rocking chair and read a couple books. I tucked Adam in bed and then Jacob and I read books on the couch.
