Week of April 12th-April 18th

I had this big, long blog written about this week but some stupid virus had to be dealt with pronto. So, I nixed it abruptly. Here is the gist of last week...my sister and her kidlets came. We had lots of fun. Then they left. My child promptly attached himself to Elmo as result of it (this week it is E.T.). Ryan has come up with some funny phrases that are now escaping me. He is totally into the boy basics...farting and burping. Yay. He cracks me up all the time. He has one more month of school and then it's Summer. I am still trying to find some program for him for some kid interaction. There is only so many times I can beg Susan to let us come over to swim.
Erin turned 3 months and is getting so big. She now has pretty good neck control and loves to grab at stuff. So maybe she is wanting the left arm to move and the right does but hey, she's trying! haha She is also doing the inchworm up the changing table. And we just broke into her new set of clothes. So, mommy is super excited. I have to say, it's funny seeing the differences in the two of them. I cannot wait to see what her personality shapes up to be! So far, we are pretty sure she will still be active like her big brother but maybe a little more mellow. We shall see.
And here are the pics!

One of the themes from the Orlando Science Center was Grossology. Perfect for Ryan!



Guess what this is....

Garrett and Sydney fighting over the BABY xylophone that seemed to stump everyone. No one could do Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

Not even Tammy

The Hurricane tunnel

After...

Look at my cute, sleeping beauty!

Working on the car (I made Sydney do this. Garrett actually concentrated on doing it right)


Erin had some conversations with Aunt Tammy


Made Sydney do this, too (not the rope 'em pose, that was ALL her).

Ryan did it.

A little baby butt crack (I am sure Erin will kill me later for this)

I call this Peanut Boy (I don't know why he looks like his head is peanut-shaped and look at that chin!)

Another picture I call Bucky Beaver

Milking a cow (looks like Ryan maybe be giving it a rectal exam)

And the Motley Crew (minus me)


Then, there was Sea World.






The cousins (minus little Mister, she was asleep)!


On to next week!
