More pictures from Sunday

Nate is doing so well with the regular swings. His brothers pushed him for a bit today and he loved that he was swinging higher.









Our Sunday

It was a nice warm day today so after church we decided to get out the Slip n Slide. Harry had gotten it for his birthday. Nate didn't want to miss out so his nap got delayed a bit. Our backyard isn't very big so the boys couldn't really run much to slide on it well enough. They seemed to enjoy it anyway.










Nate insisted on having lunch outside today.


We briefly lost Nate this afternoon too. The three boys were in the backyard and I was inside taking care of a couple of things but checking on them frequently. Bob went out to get the slip n slide set up. Nate was not in the yard then so Bob thought he was in the house with me. I looked out and saw Bob, Ted, and Harry setting up the slip n slide but didn't see Nate. I went out to check on him and he wasn't in the backyard. I went to the front but couldn't see him and I was calling his name. It wasn't long before I heard his voice. He had crossed the street and was going into our neighbor's backyard. He figured out the lock on their gate yesterday (although I'm not sure if it was completely closed when he went in today). He was halfway in their yard before I caught up to him. That boy is too smart for his own good!

Trying to catch up...

It's been a long time since I've posted anything--how does the time go so quickly? We're almost done with another school year but I don't think things will slow down too much right away. Ted just finished soccer yesterday and starts baseball practice tomorrow. Harry learned how to read last week and loves to read the BOB books. He's really excited about using his new skill. Nate has learned colors and some shapes and just loves to play and run around outside all day. He has an opinion about everything.

Expect some back posts as I sort through pictures to share. ;)

Brothers snuggling


I came down the stairs to see Ted and Nate sitting on the couch together watching tv. They were happy to pose for the camera.
