Claire "The Pea Picker-Upper"

Owen "The Oreo Dunker"
We went to Target this weekend and Owen picked out a FROG POTTY. He's been letting us know when he's "going" in his diaper so we thought we might as well get a potty. No pressure, he's only 2, for now he sits on it and reads his potty books (in true man form). Pretty cute!



Brad, Kenzie and Ricky needed to shoot their guns before their hunting seasons started, so we went out in the woods......... Isn't that how all family outings start? We decided to bring Owen's gun that Uncle Lewis bought him and give Owen a little lesson. Neither Brad or Owen actually shot his little gun but he held it up and looked down the barrel and said pkew, pkew. You what sound I'm talking about...........the sound every little boy is born knowing! It was very cool to watch.
The picture isn't the best, it's from my phone! Claire sat in the front of the cart for the first time. Normally this seat is occupied by brother and I wear Claire in my wrap. We went to Costco on Friday and they have two seats in the front of their carts. Well is was awesome...........for the kiddos and for me!

Claire is using a Sippy Cup. We just decided to try it this morning and she loved it. She grows so fast I can hardly keep up. She didn't even gag or choke......overall success!
Owen was very jealous that sister was getting her picture taken with her sippy cup. Here is Owen showing off his fork skills. Notice the empty plate.....man that kid can eat!

















What a fun weekend. We ventured to the zoo Sunday and had a blast. We got just a bit of rain but didn't let that get the best of us. The kids had so much fun. Owen walked the entire time and loved making all the animal sounds. Quote of the trip.....as it's starting to drizzle and we are all getting the rain coats out........."But Mommy I love the rain" (Nolan)
