Books, books, and more books!

One of our weekly routines is going to the library for story time. The kids sing songs and usually hear 3-4 books (depending on how wild the crowd gets). Kellen has become fascinated with the water. He's very into books about whales, fish, and penguins. You'd be surprised how few children's books there are on the ocean. I think we've read them all. "Commotion in the Ocean" is great. It has lots of sea creatures, including penguins and polar bears. Today at story time they read books about bugs, not a favorite subject for Kellen. He just kept saying "ewwwww". That he learned from his Mama. I too am not a fan of the bugs.

Cook Out



We had our first cook out last week.  The weather has been so beautiful, I'd been dying to get the grill out.  Yummy!
 


Xbos Birthday

For Kellen's (second) birthday celebration we had a kid party at Xbos Family Fun Center.  It was really great to see all the little ones running around having so much fun (adults included).  Kellen loved getting to see all his little friends that we've been missing since we've been away in N.C.  I wish I had taken more pictures of the kids playing together, but it was next to impossible to get them all together when there's so many cool things going on all around them! 
Happy 2nd Bday, Kellen!
