Outdoors

We have been loving this wonderful weather. This past Sunday we went for a walk in the Orono Crown lands. The boys had a great time on our hike and didn't want to leave! You can see that even though they are surrounded by all this beautiful nature, they still have one-track minds....food!



Liam was outside while I was hanging laundry. Darren went into the house, found his favourite book, and brought it out so he could read it to Liam.


Evan decided that he was the garbage man - he would step on the ladder of his swingset and hold onto the handle. Then he put a few sand toys on the ground for his "garbage." That wasn't enough, so he collected all the patio furniture to add to his pile. After I took the picture, he went to the front, got the chairs from there, and brought the bikes and cars to his pile! Impressive. Of course, when it got to be time to clean up, everything was "too heavy" and "too much work."
(notice Darren's hat...he's very independent and won't let me help him put it on...sometime's it works, sometimes it looks like this!)

Very cute stories - busy boys!

Judah (who is still awake at quarter to nine!) insists that there are two Darrens in all these pictures. A baby Darren and a big Darren.
We really have to see you guys soon!:)

Of all the bouncy chairs in the world we have the exact same one for our boys. We got ours free from a friend -- thank goodness-- cause Ayden only bounces for 5-10 minutes then he is bored. In the stores they are $8- $140, crazy. That would have been a waste of money. Glad to see the boys are having such fun. I should come up sometime with Ayden and go to the zoo with you guys!!
