Lucas & Blane

This morning Lucas and I met Blane and Jen to go play at an indoor play yard. These boys had a blast! I love this place - we're going to meet back up there next week too! They played and played and played.

whoa - this is a little overwhelming, right Blane?

bang - bang - bang - I love you mommy...
I'm outta here - I see something I can crawl on.

This is much better. Let's see if I can make it to the top and give my mom a panic attack!

yup it worked! Mom - it's OK I have I'm holding on with ONE hand!

Lucas - you won't be in trouble over here. Come one - there is BIG bugs and dinosaurs to play with.

woops - I think I am supposed to sit on the blue dump bed? Thanks Mrs. Jen.

See you soon Blane.

December playdate...

I always look so forward to our monthly get togethers. We've all been through pregnancy, infants... now toddlers together. Well, Jen & Ash are joining the "Family of 4" club. Congrats to both of them on more babies! :) Thanks Ashlee & Reese for hosting. We love your new house!


OK - this play date we laughed and laughed at these little monkeys. Not sure what was funnier - Blane's tongue curl thing - Reece... I mean REESE (love you Ash)(lol) wanting in on some of Blane's attention and sticking her tongue all the way too, Reece pushing Blane around the house in her doll stroller - and him just being so "chill", or Ashlee causing me to be deaf in one ear while she saw a "critter" in the back yard?

Thanks Ash for hustling back and forth setting your camera timer while Jen & I watched and laughed... lol

All the kiddo's doing their own thing... for now
sweet boy

yay - they were all looking!

It was so great to see Jen & Blane

"Ok Blane... you just sit tight - I know my way around here, ok?"

" Reece, please slow down. You are scaring me!"

" Hey guys - Can I have a turn to push, Reece?"

"ummmm - now is not a good time Lucas"

"{sigh} don't you know - women are better drivers than men Lucas. Blane - hold on tight"

"hey Lucas - quick - she's going after a toy... get me out of here"

"ok dude - let me get a good grip on this pink doll stroller"

"HOLD ON BLANE!!! - Lucas, hurry! "

"oh no no no Luke. I told you. Women drive better and I know my way around here"

"ok Blane, here we go again"

"ummmm guys - hello? Lucas? Reese?... mommy? ... anyone?

Hey Lucas... I was just kidding about all that. No hard feelings ok my friend?

.......... muhhhh-waaahhhhh

fun play date!

Today was a extra fun play date... STEPHANIE joined us w/ sweet Barrett! That little guy is such a cutie. I ended up at the mall pretty early - so did Ash/Reece. I wish I could have gotten more pictures of sweet Barrett, but my battery didn't last :(. We went to a mall in Plano where they have a fab play area. We'd been once before and the kids LOVED IT!
I can't wait to do this again.

On the way there reading his Noah's Ark... so sleepy...

aaaaaaaaaaaaaand - he's out!

Such a cutie!!! Ash & Reece

wow - how cute is she!!!

These little pumpkins were having a "latte' " fun - ha ha ha (get it - they're in a coffee cup)

Reece was telling me all about this play area... She comes here so much - she was telling the good "hiding" spots.

I started to tell my mom where the good hiding spots were, but Reece put a stop to THAT! "ssssssssshhhhhhhhh Lucas - I told you it's a secret!""No, Lucas it's THIS way - here ... let me help you turn your head"

"what's in your hair Lucas - is that hair gel?"

"Seriously, does your mommy not wash your ears, Lucas???"

"A-HA! I found one of the hiding spots... ssshhh don't look "

Playing with his new buddy BARRETT! How fun - another boy!

Taking time to smell the flowers

Another fabulous play date took place at the Arboretum! WOW! The flowers were amazing - the kid's were awesome! JEN - WE MISSED YOU!

Breathtaking colors!

I wish you could see all the butterflies in these purple flowers...
