Growing Boys

Ready for an afternoon with the Guys

Concentrating on getting the Puff from hand to mouth

Trouble, with a capital "T"

Brotherly Love

I know it doesn't look like we have left the house recently, as all of our pics are from the same spot in our living room & many with the boys in their pjs. But despite the evidence, we haven't been complete hermits. We have however, cut back or shortened some of our outings over the past 2 weeks since Filson stopped wearing diapers. Due to my anxiety from fretting over when the next accident could occur, I found myself scheduling our time away from home very carefully! I probably know how much you all care about our son's potty habits.....yeah, not so much : ) ....so I'll spare you the details & just say we are all very happy he has transitioned into big-boy pants.
Last Saturday was a wet & dreary day, and I took the chance to take Filson to the movie theater for the first time. We saw Alvin & The Chipmunks, which he did like, just not nearly as much as he liked the popcorn! Ian got to spend the afternoon grabbing beers with Dad & the guys, I'm sure a very educational outing for him.
Ian had his 6 mth check up on Wed (yes, a little behind the times as he turns 8 mths on Fri). He weighed 17lb 12oz (25%) & is 28" (70%). He is healthy & very happy, batting his eyelashes & flirting with the doctor & med student during the entire visit. He has started feeding himself finger foods & his big brother gets a kick out of watching this event.
We went to music class, story hour & spent some time at the Children's Museum this week & then were excited for John to get back to town last night. We met friends this morning at Home Depot to do the children's activity & then grabbed lunch at the beach. Tomorrow we'll be joining our neighbors to stuff our faces while we watch the big game!
