Slumber Party

On Saturday Austin and Alexis came to spend the day and night with us. Which meant we have 2 toddlers and a 4 year old. What a time we had at our house. We went to the park, played outside (a lot), made cupcakes, colored and all slept in the same room and slept through the whole night!!

Everyone wanted to get some playtime with Uncle Ben/daddy

Alexis wanted to color and Devin just wanted to play. Not always a good combination.
Outside time playing catch and raking the driveway. Austin really loves to play with the ball.

Bubbles

What a little angel!!! On Saturday it was beautiful and we spent most of the day outside. We enjoyed playing at the house, a walk, the park, and bubbles!

As you can see he wants to do them himself. What a mess, but it was so much fun.

Spring Time

This afternoon noon Devin and I went for a walk after his nap. We stopped at Juba's and played at the park. Devin enjoyed swinging and playing on the slides. After all of that we went to visit Grandpa Tom and Diane. As you can see Devin wanted to go see the dog out in the yard. But it was still a little muddy (and full of doggy poo). So it was a better idea to stay on the driveway.

Here Grandpa had to clean off Devin's shoes since he got mud on them. Devin was very interested in the screw-driver.

Finally we can get outside

Over the weekend we were finally able to get outside to play in the snow. I do have a pair of boats for Devin, but he is unable to walk or stand in them so we just put him in his shoes. His poor little legs got so full of snow. He really liked sliding down the pile of snow by the sidewalk. As you can notice we don't have a sled, but the snowpants work just as well.

Friday was one busy day

Now that Devin and I are home together three days a week, we have been very busy. We go on an average of 2-3 walks a day and we try to get to the pool when it is nice outside.


As you can see he is into everything. Nothing is safe anymore. I took the picture after catching him playing with the picture frames on my glass shelves.


Outside playing in our car.


He thought it was fun to try to stand in the car. Which of course I was saying NO-NO. He also likes to touch the grass when he is the car or the walker, but as soon as you put him on the grass he doesn't like it. He is one funny boy.

After his afternoon nap we went to the pool. He had so much fun this time. He was crawling at the edge of the pool and didn't mind when water got splashed in his face.




Kayla and Haley were even there to play with. He liked playing with Kohl also. Then again any kid that will talk to him, he likes to smile at.



After a long and busy day we all went to the Blue Earth Fireworks. They didn't start until around 10 o'clock. Once we got out to the school, where we like to wactch the fireworks, to the east of us was a nice light display going on already. It was lightening out, but we were lucky, whatever strom there was passed right over us. As Ben and I sat and watched the fireworks, Devin was sound a sleep in the backseat of the car. The fireworks themselves were okay.
