More visits!

This weekend Rick, Lily, Alex, and Doc came to visit us. We had a good time. The boys messed around in the yard a lot and the ladies (and Grey) stayed inside and enjoyed the air conditioning. Grey was pretty well behaved. Only one or two minor melt downs. :) Rick introduced the baby to Doc and the baby seemed really interested. He might need a puppy in a year or two. Matt also got his birthday present from his parents......A NEW GRILL!!!!!!! Actaully, it seems like a present for me too. This is a picture that is just silly. There was a website about this lady who posed her sleeping baby. Anyway, we created a wonderful scene staring Alex. Really, it is just hard to explain. We spent so much time on this though I felt like I HAD to post it. These photos are from today. Matt heard how much fun baby pools can be.

Visits

Amy and Zev came to visit us this past week. They got to stay 6 whole days. It was really fun. The babies mostly ignored each other, but it was still fun. We went to the science museum, shopping, the duck pond, a little play ground, and the Jackson zoo.

Amy and I took pictures on two different cameras so we will be making two posts out of our visit. I will post the ones I have now and then more later!

Ms. Mickey sent Grey a package of those fun jeans diapers. He had already worn one and had some photos taken. But I thought it would be fun to have a little photo shoot of the boys in jeans diapers.









Jeans photo shoots are hard work!


Amy brought Grey a little present.....baby sun glasses!!! And I thought since he was already Mr. Cool in his jeans, he should also try out his shades.



The zoo was nicer than we thought it would be. Very nice to go and walk around.



Baby and I are in a little beaver look out.












We also went to toddler land at Chick-Fil-A and Zev loved it! Grey liked the colors but really could not do much :)







And last but not least, Zev loves to be outside. He got some pool time and some wonderful wet grass time.


There will be more pictures to come when I get them from Amy. I just knew that some people were on pins and needles to see some photos from our week :)

Backyard Adventures

Grey really likes to be outside. Matt sometimes takes him outside when he is fussy and he almost instantly stops crying. We have been going for walks at the duck pond in our neighborhood lately. BUT we have only really been able to go because it has been cloudy and overcast everyday. This week it has been super sunny and really hot. I decided that Grey still would like to go outside. We have been taking little adventures for just short amounts of time.

1st backyard adventure: Just laying on the grass in the shade looking at trees.





2nd backyard adventure: Swinging





3rd backyard adventure: Pool

So Zev is coming to visit and I thought that a pool might be fun. So we decided to try it out before he comes.

We went to the store yesterday and found us a blow up pool. I opened it up and started going at it. 30 minutes later and one dizzy mom.....we have a pool!!!



So then I fished out one really big swimsuit and away we went!




(Please don't pay attention to the crazy haired mommy!!!!)







This is a video that I took of Grey splashing. The only problem is that I totally forgot that you cannot turn the camera while taking a video......so it is sideways. I am sure there will be more videos of splashing in our future!
