13 Months old

Happy 13 months sweet boy. Levi has to be the sweetest boy. We love you more that you can ever understand!!

Fun in the sun!!

Today we took advantage of a day without rain. We took the boys to Orchardly Park. It was our first time, and we really love the park. But wish it was closer to home. Levi loved the splash pad. I did not think he would because the water always seems cold.

Waiting on the water to come back

Looks like he is surfing

Joseph loved the big water/sand. Me not too much and Levi would not quit eatting the sand.

Is that Spider man??

Planting flowers

Last week I decided that it would be a good idea to get Joseph to plant flowers. So we headed out to Walmart picked up some clay pots, soil, and seeds. The first day we painted our flower pots. Joseph loves to paint, and I really need to do more paint projects with him.

Here is Joseph painting his flower pot.

Now it is time to plant our seeds.

Don't forget to water them also.

Joseph with our flower pots and a ring pop!!

Now he has asked me about a hundred times if he can go check on his flowers. It is going to be a long week or two.

Rain, rain go away!!

Last night while finishing up dinner, we decided to go outside and play in the rain. It has been raining here so much lately so I thought we should take advantage especially since it was bath night anyways. So here are some pictures and a video of Levi walking for my parents!! Levi love walking through the puddle.

Lets go

Lets try that again

Jump

Oh no fall down

Joseph found a dead worm

You see the worm Levi??

Daddy's home!!!

Cincinnati Zoo

Sunday we decided to take the boys to the zoo. It was a beautiful day and what better way to enjoy the day then go to the zoo. We got there early so it was not too crowded, and it was not to hot either. Joseph loved going, but Levi not too much. He was just in a mood yesterday. We took our lunch, and was able to save some money not buying over priced food.

I love this picture of Levi. Joe took this with his phone.

Proud mommy

Not only can Joseph spell his name now he can write his name. I am so proud of my little boy!!

Preschool first and last

Today is Joseph's last day of preschool. It is just bittersweet how fast he is growing up. Here is a comparison photo of his first day and last day. I can't believe my baby is going to be in pre-k next school year.

I have crossed over........

To cloth diapering. I have a few friends that cloth, and I have always told them never in a million years would I cloth diaper my kids. Who wants more laundry not me. Well the past weekend my friend invited me to go to a restash store. I was able to get quite a few diapers for $40. I have enough that I only wash every other day it that. So far so good and never say never. What is next minivan...........to be continued

Soccer pictures

Joseph's soccer pictures turned out so good this year. He is also playing so much better this year. He even scored his first goal on May 14, 2011. Here is his individual picture and then his team picture.

Field day!!

This was Joseph's first field day. I was able to make part of the activites. After all the games we had a picnic. Joseph's class made these cute t-shirts with everyones handprint such a cute idea. Here are a few pictures...
