Water boys

Today was Tyson's last day of swimming lessons. He did pretty good in level two, but I will still need to work with him a lot to get him ready for next summer. Good thing we have an awesome pool at the hotel to swim in.

Last night I was sick of my boys whining and moaning so I decided to put a bowl of water outside for them to splash around in. Well, what started out as a bowl of water quickly turned into this.....Tanner crawled right in, clothes and all, before I could stop him. And it ended up like this....
An hour of fun for the boys, and an hour of sanity for myself.

Happy Birthday

Yesterday was Tanner's 1st birthday! Throughout the day we did our regular routine, but then we had friends and family over for a little party in the evening. It was really fun. I don't think Tanner quite understood what was going on, but he enjoyed the attention. Too bad Tyson skipped his nap and fell asleep at dinner. He was so tired he actually asked me to put him to bed, so he missed the whole thing. Plus, his allergies were acting up and he gets so asthmatic that I wanted him to get sleep if he could. Anyway, I spent a large part of the day making this choo-choo train cake. I thought it turned out pretty cute but I will never do it again because it is too much work! Thanks to friends and family for the presents! Happy Birthday little guy, We Love You so much.



Below is a picture of a tonka truck our friends gave him. He loved it and played with it all night! Plus he got some sand toys that he can dig around in the dirt with (which he loves doing).
