We had a nice relaxing Sunday today, enjoying some time with James. Here are a few pictures of the brothers. I love how much fun they have just looking at James and talking to him, and how excited they get when he opens his eyes or grabs their finger.
And here is one of the tired Dad after a day of Sunday meetings. He put on Landon and Davis’s ties to make them laugh, then fell asleep like that on the couch. :)
Yesterday, we had to go to Fry’s to get a few things, and since we were in Wilsonville, we decided to stop at the park and let the boys play in the fountains. Because of the cool weather in June, we haven’t really had a chance to go yet this year. The boys had a blast playing in the water! I had brought a plastic cup for each of them, and it was enough to keep them entertained the whole time. They would put them over the top of a fountain before it shot up, or drop them down the stream and chase after them. It was a great time!
This week, we decided to go to a park they redid by us a few months ago. We had tried going a few other times, but things had always come up before. We took a lunch, and Shane met us there on his lunch break. Landon and Davis liked the play structure . . . all except these little chairs you sit in and spin around. Landon tried it out and immediately asked Grandma to help him stop and get out because he didn’t like it. After she got him out, my mom took Davis over and was helping him climb up the stairs to the slide. Right then, Landon for some reason decided to get back in the chair. He started spinning around, faster and faster, and yelled out a panicked, “Grandma!” I was feeding James on the bench, so my mom tried to hurry and get Davis down the stairs and run over to help Landon, but he tried to get out on his own and fell right on his head! Luckily, I think it scared him and hurt his pride more than anything else.
Landon liked climbing on this rope clear around from one side to the other. He stopped half way to peek through and say hi.
Davis had fun climbing up these stairs and over to the other side.
And while I’m at it, here are a few other pictures from the week: Davis saying hi to James, and Landon and Davis playing “going to bed” on their floor.
I’ve had multiple requests for more baby pictures, so I am finally getting some on here! Here are the top ten things we’ve been doing since James came home from the hospital.
1. Going to church with Grandma
2. Welcoming James home from the hospital
3. Making funny faces for the camera
4. And making funny faces for James
5. Giving James his first bath
6. Reading books with Grandma
7. Playing with bubbles
8. Giving James toys to play with
9. Just hanging out looking at James
10. And thinking how he’s the cutest baby ever!
Our stay at the hospital lasted for three days, and I was so ready to come home by Sunday! Here are a few more pictures taken while we were at the hospital.
This is the first thing Landon did every day when he got to the hospital
