How quickly they grow up...

Well, we finally gave up on the dream that Trevor would stay in his crib till he moved out. As I was putting away his laundry last night, I watched him flip himself in and out of the crib like a pro. So, we decided it's time and took the crib apart and changed it to the toddler bed. We crossed our fingers and anticipated a long night. To our surprise Trevor went to bed and stayed there all night long. Well, now I anticipate tonight to be a long night since I just jinxed myself.

Relaxing...

It was a busy weekend. Trevor had his first sleepover on Friday night. Our softball league started on Friday, and so Hannah & Trevor had a sleepover at our house w/the babysitters. They had a great time. Although the next day I found Trevor in his room sitting in his rocking chair, rocking his stuffed animals. Once again...influenced by the older woman. Saturday morning Trevor and I snuck out of the house and went to the Farmers Market, shopping and to lunch. I thought we were giving Daddy a little time to relax, but came home to find him digging post holes for a neighbors deck. Well, at least I tried. Saturday night we ordered pizza's with some neighbors and went and got some ice cream. The adults sat around the front yard relaxing while we let the kids run around and wear themselves out. I think we went to bed not too long after Trevor. Sunday, I met up with some girlfriends for the day....so Daddy and Trevor spent the day together. Monday we went to the parade in town and then to the "rally in the alley". Which is pretty much your average WI reason to sit around eat brats and drink beer. It was crazy hot though, so we didn't stay long. Trevors pool is blown up and ready for Mommy to use it to lay out in, oh I mean for Trevor to play in.

"Sicle's"

Trevor LOVES popsicles...or sicle's as he calls them. He stands at the freezer door screaming SICLE SICLE SICLE. Between Trevor and Daddy I think I need to find a place that sells them wholesale.

You will see from the video below that apparently we need to work on the color orange.

A Trip to the Zoo

Saturday morning we went to the Farmer's Market, Zoo, and out to lunch. The kids LOVE the zoo! Trevor was not a fan of the carousel, he wouldn't even sit on any of the animals.

Quack Quack!

There are some ducks hanging around the neighbors yard.

As you can see, Trevor was more interested in feeding himself than the ducks.

Hey...those are REAL ducks...

Let the chase begin....

Quick snack break...

Out of bread, how about some old grass?

The influence of an older woman....

3 year old Hannah lives across the street from us. Hannah LOVES Trevor and calls him "My Trevor" (but don’t tell Ariel!). Trevor also LOVES Hannah, because she is older and teaches him fun things. Last night Hannah taught Trevor how to climb in and out of his crib. They though it was the funniest thing ever! So of course about 5 minutes after Trevor went to bed I hear a "thud". I went into his room to find him standing on his toy box with a big smile on his face. So much for keeping him in his crib until he moves out! Hannah is lucky she is so cute...
