French Quarter Fest

Dave took Jack camping yesterday and last night, so Theo and I decided to enjoy the wonderful weather and head to the French Quarter! I wore him in a sling and he did great. It did get very bright for a while and I had to use his burp cloth for a hat. Cousin Cameron met us out and Theo had a great time going through her bag. He was like a baby pickpocket!

I snapped this picture of Theo's pearly white tooth last night. If you look really closely and enlarge the picture, you'll be able to see it. So far it's just one...... the bottom left is taking it's time!

Grandparents day

Yesterday was Grandparent's Day at Kehoe. Gigi and Dada made the trip over and enjoyed the afternoon with Jack. The children put on a performance for the grandparents and then made crafts for them. Everyone had a great time and Jack was exhausted when he came home. Thanks for making the day special Gigi and Dada.

Zoo with Connor

The boys and I met up with my friend Tammie and her son Connor Wednesday. Jack and Connor go to Toddlearn together on Fridays and get along really well. Jack and Connor had a blast playing on the playground and looking at the animals. Theo was a trooper and maybe managed to see a few animals. Maybe? It did make it hard to take pictures though since Theo was out of the stroller more than he was in! Thanks for meeting us Tammie and Connor!

We have a tooth!

No picture to go along with it yet (his mouth is like Ft. Knox and there is no getting in there), but Theo's bottom right tooth has cut! Soon to be followed by the bottom left I'm sure.... He's still terribly fussy and drooling like you wouldn't believe. We're getting close to table foods too. Theo is eating stage 3 foods and eating the puffs or baby nutrigrain bars well. Soon he'll be putting those new-found teeth to work ;)

Outside time

Theo loves being outdoors and now that he's grabbing the rocks from the gravel box and putting them in his mouth (knew that day would come), I have to keep him out of harms way. Right now he'll stay put on the blanket and stay occupied with various things. Jack got a bubble maker from a friend for his birthday and Theo like to watch the bubbles. He's so fair (yes, he's blonde!) that I have to put a hat on him. I think these pictures turned out adorably cute!

Bike rider

Jack is pedaling really well now on his tricycles. He surprised both Dave and me with this new trick. We asked him when he learned and he told us that Alyssa taught him (she was over the night before he showed us for the first time). Alyssa also taught Jack how to crawl way back when, so we're not surprised that she helped him master this skill too!

You may wonder, why doesn't Jack have clothes on? Well, he's in underwear! Just an afternoon experiment with the potty. It's slowly coming along.......

Holding his bottle

Theo's newest obsession is holding his own bottle or sippy cup. He's very good at it. Normally I hold him in my lap and let him take the bottle, but I had to snap a picture of him doing it on his own! Kinda hard when he's in my lap. Theo soaked through his diaper at nap time (he slept for 3 hours!) so that is why he is naked in the pic. He's growing up too fast!
