We LOVE the beach!!

We went to Mirror Lake today in Devons, (right near mom & dad's stomping ground before they moved to Lowell, also the same park where Dad proposed to mom so she said she was enjoying reminiscing.)

So today at the beach we had a blast.
Adley holds his breath and walks underwater under the buoys (he learned it from his friends who swim under the buoys. ) Mom will need to buy this boy some swim goggles now...

Nathanael thinks he can swim too. He sits in the water up to his neck, and he loves to plunge forward and works hard to keep his head up. (He does a good job, it's crazy.) He walks very well in the water now, and pretty fast. He wants to be deep like his brother (of course.)

So that's our fish report. We Love the water.

And Adley's latest fascination is Transformers. He was looking through the Halloween cosutme catologs and he saw the transformer ones (which don't come in small 4T size, mom checked) so all he talks about is Transformers. Now when we are driving he tells mom which trucks are transformers. He's never seen the movie or the cartoons, but maybe that's something mom should look into.

Adley might be Spider Man for Halloween, but that's not a sure thing.

Love you guys!
Adley & Nathanael

New Video!!

Our Dr's visits

So today we went to the Dr, Adley for his 3 year and Nathanael for his 15 month.

So Adley is 39 inches long in the 85 percentile and 35.2 lbs in the 80th percentile. The fun little height predictor on babycenter.com still has Adley being 6 ft 1 inch at 18. Adley is in top form, everything checks out.

So Nathanel was 33 inches long in the 90th percentile (Adley was 32 1/2) and 25 lbs 13oz in the 65th percentile (Adley was 26lbs 6oz). Poor Nathanael has an ear infection (mom had no idea....he did have a bit of a cold.) Nathanel got 3 shots. OUCH!

Then both boys had to go get a finger prick and neither of them made a sound they were so fascinated by the blood filling the tube, they are champs. Nathanael needed another one because he was slightly anemic last time, and Adley was routine. (Also poor Adley when he turns 4 will need 4 shots.....)

The boys were sooooo good so we went to McDonalds for lunch and they both had Happy Meals (and they ate the whole thing...mom just helped a little with some fries....They were hungry from such a busy morning.)

Time for a snooze, so we can rock out the rest of the day!

Birthday Weekend

I had a fabulous Birthday weekend, (and the fun isn't even all done yet.) I went to the park with my friends in the morning and had a blast. That night I had cake with mom and dad. On Saturday I went to another park to play with Grandma and cousin Jayden. There's lots of pictures to add, but here are a few photo's for you guys.

Thanks for all the Birthday wishes.

Vacation Bible School

Oh what a week, I had a blast in the frog group. Most of my friends from church were in my group too, and my Sunday school teacher was in charge. It was a little hard leaving mom on the first day, but once she was out of site I was having a blast. I made all kinds of artsy things that I explained to mom and dad when I got home. Talking about all the cool letters I glued to my fish. I even sang in front of everyone at church Sunday morning. Well really I was looking around checking out my friends. But at home I shake one fist in the air and sing "Son Rock Kids Camp!" I'm already asking to do it again. This year was a camp theme, next year is Rain Forest...how fun.

Can you believe I'm going to be 3 this Friday! Mom asked me what kind of cake I want, and I had a few choices but I picked Thomas Train...good luck with that cake mom. Maybe she won't go 3-D on it...that would be crazy.

There are just a few new photos from our latest Beach adventure. There were lots of rocks for climbing and my buddies are climbing, chatting with me there.

OK over and out!
