Fair

We went to the county fair yesterday to see the cows. Will got to go on his first carnival ride. I thought he might freak out when it started moving...but he was very focused and had a look of deep concentration on his face. When I went to unbuckle him all he could say was "more again!".

Wyatt slept through all the fun, even the mini donuts.

The many faces of Wyatt

Little guy is three months old today!

We went to a very much deserved appreciation picnic this weekend for our fantastic daycare provider Diane. Below is a video mix of the day and above is Diane receiving a plaque thanking her for all that she does everyday for our kids. Sara, one of the moms, is an artist and made the plaque and had all the kids sign their names to copper plates and she made a piece of art for Diane with all of the kids' work on it. What a great afternoon! Thank you Diane for all that you do!

Will has become much more fond of being a big brother...here's some video of the boys together.

A summer thunderstorm blew through here yesterday afternoon. There was some impressive thunder that came with it. Somehow, Will go it into his head that it was "hotdogs" that were making the noise. So he walked around the house yesterday afternoon declaring "hotdogs outside LOUD!"

Big steps

Seems that we might be officially on the road to potty training for Will (although I've probably just jinxed it by writing that). He's used his potty for FIVE days in a row. Still has wet diapers but is making deposits into the potty so we're on the right path...

Wyatt rolled over from tummy to back three times a few days ago...hasn't done it since but it was a big accomplishment.

Bill is recovering well from his hip surgery. He's three weeks out and has started walking the dog, making dinner, and wrestling Will again. I know he's getting antsy being so limited but we're seeing great progress.

Here are a couple of pictures - one with Will wearing his bike helmet and rain boots. Notice the big owie on his chin...he did battle with the driveway - and the driveway won.

All the boys taking a break together.
