The Terrific/Horrific Twos
San Antonio Pictures
Here are some of the pictures from our recent family vacation with the Johnsons and our trips into San Antonio. Unfortunately I didn’t get many pictures due to toddler wrangling but my niece was kind enough to take several when we had a day at the zoo.
Pictures of the Big Boy Beds
Finally, here they are. We bought everything at Ikea. The beds can be crib size, are currently set at toddler size, and grow out to be twins in the years ahead. I’m going to swing by Ikea in a couple of weeks and make them some matching curtains. We are discussing [...]
July
Here are some of the pictures from the Warren family’s visit in July.
Bye Bye Nap
Have I mentioned yet that Logan has started to drop his nap? It’s not every day and seems to have no rhyme or reason to it. It was tough for me the first few times because I really relish that hour all to myself. But he knows that is mommy’s quiet time [...]
Home Again
Home again after a week’s vacation in New Braunfels, Texas with my parents, brother and two of his daughters. It was very amazing to see how much easier these vacations have gotten as the boys get older. Being able to skip naps so that we can go on outings was a huge milestone. [...]
Old Draft, finally posting
I drafted this two weeks ago but we lost our interconnect connection for awhile and then went on a vacation for a week so I’m just now getting a chance to post it.
Three weeks ago we had a wonderful visit from Brad’s parents and many other relatives on his mom’s side of the [...]
Thirty Months Going on Twenty Years Old
Two and a half years old, it’s as much a difference in age as 6 months to a year.
Forest’s quests for power and individuality are even more pronounced and over the top. Usually they can be managed, but sometimes there is no telling what set him off or it’s not easily fixed. [...]
Glen Rose Dinosaur Park
A while ago a new Dinosaur Park opened near Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose, a town that I drive through when taking the boys to or from seeing their Grandparents Trammell. They are probably old enough to enjoy camping at the State Park where there are some neat life-sized dinosaur models and I’m [...]
Finger Painting!
The boys made finger painted art for Father’s Day cards to their Dads and Granddads. They had a blast! Especially Forest who decided to pain himself as much as the paper.
Logan loved how pretty his hands got.
Forest banging his hands down to make a cool image.
Logan had to try that method, [...]
Brothers
The boys fight a lot at this age. I expect they will from here on out. I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, I just didn’t expect the “stop touching me!” to start at such an early age! We can’t make it through the grocery store any more without fights [...]
