Wine and Wings

Today we spent the afternoon at the Cava Winery for 'Wine and Wings' with some friends.

Last weekend Andrew went to his first ice skating party. I for one was VERY excited to take him skating for the first time. I got my skates sharpened, we collected our gloves and his helmet and headed to the rink. Andrew was all excited while we were getting his skates on and he was walking around just fine...

and THEN we got on the ice...

Dylan on the other hand was dying to get out on the ice... we'll have to get him a helmet that fits before next time!

New Car!

On Thursday we traded in the old Escape and Mariner...

And picked up our shiny new explorer!

Backyard Camping!

On Saturday night Andrew and some of his friends set up their tents (with a lot of help from the moms and dads) and got ready for backyard camping. They ate their snacks and dinner at picnic tables, cooked their hotdogs and s'mores over the fire and then slept in their tents. Thanks to a very long extension cord they watched Nemo while enjoying their s'mores before heading off to bed. The next morning they had breakfast on the deck and then broke down the campsite. I think everyone had enough fun to try this again soon :-)

Pre-Party set up.. new truck already earning its keep!

15 month checkup

Today Dr. Porter confirmed what we already knew... Dylan is perfect :-) He is perfectly average sized and developing right on schedule. He was very good but not amused by the shots!

Happy 15 month birthday to Dylan and happy father's day to all the dads out there :-)

Just another typical summer weekend...

Or mostly a typical summer Sunday since we spent most of Saturday out car shopping which is neither typical or really all that fun, at least not if you are 1 and 3 years old ;-)
