What we won’t do to get Drew to sleep.

As may know, Drew doesn’t sleep well, you may also know that Drew is really into trains. He sees trains in any object, it could be a line of pencils or crackers, recently he has started to line up the laundry baskets and push them around (or be pushed around) as a train. So one night when we were struggling to get Drew to sleep, we gave up fighting with him and let him sleep in his “train”. As you can see the trick worked for Drew as well as Craig.

Kid Free Weekend

My cousin Erin got married in Pittsburg over Memorial Day weekend, so we left the boys at Grandma’s and enjoyed a weekend to ourselves. It was a wonderful weekend and the wedding was beautiful. It was great to see some of my extended family.
















While we were there we even took in a baseball game on Friday night.

Then on Saturday morning we did a sightseeing riverboat tour of the city.

As well as went up the incline to see the city from atop of Mount Washington.

My favorite memory of the weekend is my dad dancing at the wedding, it reminded me of our wedding when my dad kicked up his heels.

Twins?!?

I’ve been in denial that Drew and Matt look identical until I compared these two photos. Drew is in the green and Matt is in the blue.

Vroom, Zoom, Beep

As part of the year end activity for the ECFE (Early Childhood & Family Education), AKA “School”. The advisory board organizes a vehicle fair, which is right up Drew’s alley. They bring all the cool vehicles from school buses, to fire trucks and motorcycles to snow plows and everything in between. Needless to say Drew was in heaven “driving” all of them.

Tea, I mean Pizza Party

Craig and Drew having a pizza party during Drew’s last day of “school” this year.

Bike Radio

About a month ago, we took to an event sponsored by the Lakeville PD to promote bike safety. However Drew didn’t understand the word Rodeo so he kept calling it the Bike Radio, which we then found ourselves calling it that. As you can see Drew loves his bike.

Cheap Entertainment.

This past weekend, Drew, Craig and Cousin Maddie were playing the Hungry, Hungry Hippos Game. Matt was very interested in what was going on. His facial expressions and sounds he was making were every entertaining so I had to post this for everyone to see. Hope you find it as funny as I did.

Drew's new friend - Chester.

The boys and I recently took a road trip to visit my parents. Drew loves to visit the farm to see the cows and tractors, but his favorite was a very friendly cat named Chester. Drew enjoyed feeding and playing with Chester, in fact he even tried to get the cat to climb in the car to join us for church on Sunday morning. As you can see from the photo, Matt however is not a cat person.
