10 Playground Trip!

Fox has been working on staying in bed at night (he likes to get up to talk to us, complain about monsters under the bed, what have you). Every night that he stays in bed, he gets a sticker on his chart. I asked him what he wanted his prize to be, and he picked a 70 dollar Lego thing. So, I suggested something even better: a trip to 10 new playgrounds all in one day! He was sold. We spent around 10-15 minutes at each playground, but that was plenty. It was fun, but I got really tired. So did Pacey--at the last playground, he just plopped down on the rocks on his back and looked at the clouds for almost the whole time. We documented the trip with these pics:

This is for You, Madeline!

I know it has been a long time, but we are back! We switched internet services, and now uploading pics and videos is much more tolerable (it used to take literally hours for a 45 second clip, and then half the time it would time out and not even work! But it's better now).

Here are two pics and a video of the boys playing in the yard a Papa and Grama Fischer's house. They really love golf!

Sorry about the bad video quality. From now on I will do videos through youtube. More to come, this post was kind of an experiment on how quickly I can upload stuff.

Merry Christmas

the boys helped me give bella a bath and haircut so she would be all ready for the holidays!

Pacey put on his own hat.

Fox in the Christmas program at church (he was Joseph!). It was told as a bedtime story, which is why he is in pjs:

Here he is with his friend Libby:

Eating cake with cousin Joshua:

Pacey likes cake too.

Fox the red-nosed reindeer (he borrowed the nose from Mr. Potatohead)

Fox playing in the blizzard:

Cute kids are the best present ever!

Pacey can smile on command now, which is pretty fun for us. We are looking forward to our festivus party, and Christmas of course. More pics soon, I hope!

Pacey Walking

You may have seen this already, but if not, here is a video of Pacey walking. Enjoy!

I know it has been a long time since we have updated our blog. Apologies! Here is a link to a ton of pictures we have online. Feel free to browse around. These pics are from Easter until July.

Here are some of the things that have been going on in the lives of our boys:

Fox:

-working on potty training still (almost there!)

-started Sunday school at church, and attended VBS

-loves to watch tv and movies (I know, I know), and went on a date with Mommy to see Toy Story 3 in the theatre (he has a thing for cowgirl Jessie and her 'wonderful' legs)

-enjoys playing golf with Papa

-picky eater, but he likes baby carrots, soy chicken, pickles, and cheese

Pacey:

-currently has pinkeye and an ear infection, and is a goobery, uncomfortable mess

-not only mastered standing (in order to swing a golf club), but is also walking now too

-very talkative, though most of what he says is incoherent. Says "what's that?" all the time, and "uh oh" and responds to questions and comments appropriately (today I gave him his medicine for the pinkeye/ear infection, then I asked him if he felt better and he shook his head)

-sweet and snuggly

-gets excited easily, and then bounces up and down and waves his hands in the air while giggling

Our summer has been going really well so far. We are enjoying daily trips to fun places, like malls, the zoo, playgrounds, parades, visits with family and friends, etc. If anyone has free time this summer and wants to hang out and see just how awesome and cute and smart the boys are, just give me a call or email me. Hopefully we will post more often in the future.
