Nathan: we're in the treasure chest!

This is entertainment

Our property manager sent his father over to fix our thresholds yesterday and the boys sat so nicely and watched. It was kind of hilarious how entertained they were by it.

Holding hands!

Nothing makes me happier than my boys being sweet to each other!!!

Neigh!

Greyson just figured out that there's a button on the horse's belly!

Greyson really enjoyed the bunny at the veg fest.

He did lots of gentle petting! Nathan was more timid and less interested.

Atlanta veg fest

Greyson is not too sure about jumping in leaves but he's having fun running around.

Playing in the leaves!

Nathan loves a real "fall" in Georgia!

Is it crowded in here?

Pumpkins are for painting? Or throwing?!!!

Grandmama is visiting!

And the boys are loving our iPads!

Home Depot kids workshop

On the first Saturday of every month Home Depot hosts a kids workshop where they build and paint something. Nathan built a birdhouse and a car with my dad (aka Grandpa) at his first two workshops in Tampa.
Today he went in georgia and with Britton for the first time. He made a Home Depot truck and it having fun playing with it!

My boys just being sweet and silly together

Warms my heart.

Bath time!

This is one of my favorite times with my boys at this age. Wish I could save this moment forever!

My mom and Nathan at Downtown Gardens

This picture was taken last week when I was visiting my parents.

Nathan loves his play dough!

Big smiles from my oldest son! Handsome, isn't he?!

My dad playing with Nathan and play dough

This was taken at my parents house last week. Greyson is now a fast crawler and pulls up on everything. Trouble! :-)

Dinner and a show

Nathan sings and dances for Greyson.

Nathan got a Mohawk from a six year old girl

The boys and I got to hang out all afternoon/evening with one of my best high school friends, Kerry and her three kids! It was so much fun hanging out on the street with all the fun neighbors. Kerry's daughter Megan was giving out free hair styles with hair gel. Nathan patiently waited for his turn too. :-) So cute!!!

Greyson really likes peanut butter and jelly!

At the beach with my mom, part two

Nathan is finally warming up to the big brother role :-)

At the aquarium!

Nathan as an OB

Mini Britton! Nathan, Greyson and I were at the St. Pete children's museum with some friends.

My boys truly played together!

It lasted about 10 minutes and it was awesome!

Prepare to be amazed!

Nathan was gently dropped in the pool, struggled, and then followed his training! This took about 4 weeks of going everyday Monday-Friday. Luckily he really liked it after the first week. Now he can float in full winter clothing with shoes and a jacket!

Nathan just finished his ISR swim lessons

Nathan practicing facial expressions

The messiest grape ever

Someone's exhausted from the run!

And it's not the one who was pushing the stroller. ;-)

Grandmama's pancakes!

It's a good thing that I was gifted the secret family recipe book this year! (Thanks grandmama Rodwell!) All my boys love the pancakes but perhaps nobody is as crazy about them as Greyson. That baby LOVES grandmama's pancakes!!! He keeps banging on his tray for more!

Nathan serenades a girl for the first time!

Nathan and Celeste Newman.

Brotherly love

The used dryer sheet

Yes, this is all you need for some serious entertainment.

Dancing bunny take two

Nathan warmed up to the Easter bunny on the second take. Notice how he carefully dances around Greyson. I'm so lucky, those boys really love each other!

The dancing bunny returns

In keeping with our Easter tradition, we unveiled the dancing Easter bunny this morning. It was not that exciting. Ha! Oh well.

Ha! Devil baby!

Garage sale continued

It was such a beautiful day! Sunny and cool. We stayed outside all day, it was great!

We had a community garage sale on our street today.

One of our neighbor's was selling Halloween stuff so the boys got to play dress up.

Nathan sings happy birthday

Nathan made a birthday cake with his toys all by himself (no prompting) and said "that's my birthday cake!" Here's the video.

I guess Aunt Margie's birthday is still on his mind. So sweet.

Today we went to the aquarium with friends

An impromptu cuddle on the kitchen floor

I love my boys more than I ever thought possible!

Potty training

We used trains to bribe Nathan to poop in the potty. ;-) He has been peeing for months but was afraid to poop in the potty. When we told him he'd get a choo choo for a poo poo, he quickly got over his fears! For a couple of weeks he got a train or a piece of track for every poop. Ha! We have quite a collection now and we love playing with trains!
I'm so proud of my big boy!!!

Games at the YMCA.

Greyson at the Easter egg hunt

Easter egg hunt!

On Saturday I took Nathan and Greyson to an Easter egg hunt at the YMCA. Nathan was pretty excited about it even before he knew there were treats inside. Nathan sampled his first tootsie roll, "I love Easter egg treats!"
So funny!

Story time at the library!

We ended our aquarium day with some bayside dining!

Kerri was a very good sport about playing both the tunnel and the mountain roll.

Greyson played in the water for the first time!

He loved it!

Kerri followed Nathan all over the splash zone

Kerri and I took the boys to the aquarium on a *beautiful* day!

My sweet little sailor!

Greyson put his toes in the sand for the first time!

Greyson is captured at Ft De Soto!

Last week, my cousin came to visit!

Yay! Greyson and Kerri on our cold and windy beach day.

Hmmmm wonder if Nathan got enough attention in NJ? Ha! ;-)

These must be the windows Nathan keeps talking about

Nathan doing business with grandpa

Kerri and grandpa braved the cold to play with Nathan outside. :-)

Nathan at aunt Margie's birthday party

Listening for bowel sounds?

This kid is advanced!

Nathan got to visit NJ with my parents.

I really needed to focus my attention on Greyson so my parents took Nathan on the trip that they had planned to New Jersey. He had so much fun! I love this picture of him playing doctor with my cousin Kerri. Will this go on the wall of his office someday?
