Father's Day Recap

Here's Stephen on his birthday present from Uncle Kevin and Aunt Amy.

Michael and the boys went for rides on the 4-wheeler...

the NoNoMommy must be getting soft; she didn't fuss once.

And yes this is a 4-1/2 year old and a 2 year old driving a tractor...

Pop-pop is supervising... you hope!

This is the tent Daddy got.

We all want to go camping; except for maybe NoNoMommy.

She'll go as long as there is indoor plumbing, no bugs, etc...

A Week Full of Events

Congratulations Pop Pop on reaching that special stage in your life... retirement. We know you were looking forward to getting rid of one boss and accepting a new one. We wish you lots of luck and hope to see you up this way more often now.
And Happy Birthday Grandma, we wish you lots of luck with the extra help you will have around the house. We look forward to seeing you two again soon and all of the work that you have accomplished since you will both be home together all day, all the time. Love you!

Tired, Tired Litte Boy

Today was Stephen's first day of transitioning to the 2 Year old room at Childtime. He started the day with his normal friends; but at 11am he moved up to Ms. Anita's room for the rest of the day. We got a note from Ms. Anita and she said that Stephen had a great day and had a lot of fun playing in the new room with new friends and new toys. In fact he had so much fun that after dinner tonight he was having trouble keeping his head up. Here he is trying to play cars with Daddy & Big Brother Christopher; but that noggin is just too heavy. I wonder how late he will sleep in the morning... Will we make it to 5am?

And here are some other pictures from the last week that you may not have seen.

Christopher at one of Mommy's job sites; he brought his bull-dozer just in case it was needed.











Stephen playing with his new train; just not on the tracks. Mommy & Daddy's bed is better.






Two brothers playing together... How long will this last? 5 minutes?

Happy Birthday

Stephen had a wonderful Birthday. We had a nice little cookout with the neighbors after work and celebrated Stephen's Birthday. And here is the Birthday Boy...

And of course no party would be complete without cake... and doughnuts for Christopher. One day I am sure he will discover that he likes cake, ice cream, and chocolate, but until that day comes mommy and daddy get to keep a lot of treats to themselves.

Tractors

Some children like to push their "babies" around in their baby carriages, Stephen likes to push his tractor around on his CAT Dump Truck. He spent a few minutes this morning giving his tractor rides around the dining room and kitchen.
