That's Papa.

We have these silly Dr. Seuss flashcards that have been another futile attempt to help Wyatt name his colors... Although, my creative 'testing' with play dough (Wyatt's very favorite activity right now!) has proved Wyatt to not be color-blind, just very uninterested in color! Anyway, he's got a name for every one of the silly Dr. Seuss characters. I thought Papa would get a kick out of the one that is matter-of-factly a picture of him!

Ike in ACTION!

Isaac is definitely a LIVELY one and is really learning to MOVE...

Father's Day

Our little men wearing their Sunday best in honor of their daddy!

Wyatt could hardly wait for Daddy to open his gift. Wy guy actually spoiled the surprise when he ran to Daddy with the package in hand yelling, "Tackle Box!"
This is Wyatt giving his daddy some love in hopes that he'd share some gummy worms with him!
So proud that he got himself a worm.

Father's Day really is all about DADDY, right? (Good thing Mommy remembered to buy 2 packages of bait!)

Finishing the day with some football stories by Wyatt... I'll upload some videos so you can hear them too!

I'm sure every other Mama would beg to differ, but I really do think that my boys have the very BEST DADDY in the entire world. I'm feeling a little outnumbered these days (and totally pampered!) by all of my boys...Life is very good and I'm so thankful for these gifts in my life that I'm so undeserving of! Thanks, Joe, for our boys and for being the kind of man that our little men will hopefully someday become...

*Side note: Our sweet Indiana friend, Abby, made the darling tie shirts for the boys... Her website is http://www.etsy.com/shop/zebraheart if any of you other 'boy moms' out there want to order a shirt for your little fellas!

Football Stories!

Note that when Wyatt says, "This guy..." he's referring to his Uncle Jay! Jay, you've got yourself one very big FAN! : )

Sugarloaf Mountain!

From the top of our street, we have the most amazing view of Sugarloaf Mountain (and 2 church steeples!). Today we decided to take a scenic drive (we're not much equipped for hiking these days) up to the top of the mountain! It was so BEAUTIFUL...

Daddy and Wyatt looking out over the mountain top... and getting a little too close to the edge of the cliff, if you ask me ; )

Wyatt trying hard to give me a "cheese"

I'm not real sure what 'setting' this is on my camera (some 2-year-old little fingers were pressing buttons on Mommy's camera) but I actually think this photo turned out pretty cool!

Wyatt spotted a LIZARD...

and scared him back into his hole...

So Wyatt sat very patiently waiting and waiting and waiting for the lizard to come back out but the stubborn lizard never obliged to Wyatt's request........ So on the ride home we heard, "Lizard go?" over and over again!

All ready for a snack!

P.S. I promise to post more pics of our Ike man once he's able to sit on his own! :)

My Music Man!

Isaac is 5-Months-Old Already!

Isaac is really in a discovery phase right now... It's so cute to see him look at his hands and start to realize that they are attached to his body!

Isaac's biggest milestone this month was learning to SIT completely unsupported!!! Don't worry, Mommy is always very close by to catch Ike when he decides to turn his head and totally lose his balance, but he's able to stay in position for several seconds before toppling over! And he's so PROUD of himself, if you can't tell! : )

Look at these chunky monkey legs! Isaac now sits with us during meals, per his brother's request! : ) No solids yet, but he's gettig acquainted with the high chair. Wyatt and Isaac have there own little games these days... There's one ball that Ike is actually able to squeeze and 'throw' and Wyatt thinks it's hysterical to play 'catch' with him over and over and over!

Ikey loves playtime! He sure gets his arms and legs a movin'... I'm not too eager for him to crawl, but he's certainly got the motion down already. : /

Ike feels like such a big boy in his bumbo seat.

He's still a little wobbly, but he's starting to enjoy time in the jumper!

Wyatt makes sure to show his lil bro how everything works...

There is nobody who can make Isaac smile like his big brother! I LOVE to watch them interact and play. They have so much fun together....
