Yummy, tookies!!

Well, after such a successful day at the park I decided to continue making fun memories by having a mommy and son cooking session. Keaton helped mommy get all the stuff together for the cookies. He then managed to crack an egg, get butter all over him and all our cooking utensils. Needless to say, we had not even started our cooking endeavor and he and the kitchen were pretty messy. That's what makes it fun though, Right! Well, in the end Keaton made some darn good tookies if I do say so myself. We ate every last one so they couldn't have been that bad. By the way I do know how to spell "cookies", I just like Keaton's version better!!

Choo,Choo...All Aboard!!

As many of you already know our Keaton is in love with trains. Thank goodness he has found other interest such as sharks, whales, crocs and good old Steve Erwin. However trains still seem to be a favorite. We have been trying for weeks to get take Keaton on a train ride but we continually kept looking like lying parents as either we were negligent and didn't get tickets in time or the train was closed for repairs everytime we attempted to ride. Well, this past Sunday we finally had success. Keaton got his train ride and much, much more! We headed out Sunday afternoon with a cooler in hand for Pullen Park. Just some quick history on Pullen Park. It's a great place that has lots of space to let kids run and play while also having kiddy rides such as the train, carousel,kiddy boats,paddle boats and a lake to feed the ducks. We set up a picnic under a shelter next to the train track so Keaton could watch the train go by as we ate. Of course he didn't want to eat as the train was calling him. He was soooo excited! After lunch we headed to the beloved train and boarded with success!! Yeah, we came thru! Keaton was in his height of glory, beaming from ear to ear. We rode the train twice, fed the ducks, rode the carousel and overall had a wonderful day. Keaton even baked chocolate chip cookies later that day and boy were they yummy. Look for more on that next post. I got some great pictures and even a funny video.

Iwill be doing a few posts that will catch you up on our little men. We have family all over the place and I am hoping this helps you all feel closer to us.

Keaton as many of you know is growing up so fast. He is talking more and more everyday. He is such a cutie and has been amazing Ben and I with his vocabulary and ability to speak in semi-grown up sentence. Mommy and daddy translation sometimes is needed but overall he is doing great. Ryan is growing at the speed of light. He is a very happy little baby. He is already in 6/9month clothes and is wanting to sit up now to see the world. I look forward to seeing his sweet smile every morning and hope you will enjoy hearing about our days.

Yes, I'm blogging. Who would have thought!! Well, after refusing to pay a monthly fee to have a website and nooooo time to create one ourselves I've decided to blog!We have so much going on and I thought this would be a great way to share with everyone. Hope you will check here often for updates and enjoy watching our boys grow up.
