On the Run

Things have been relatively smooth lately...which has me on gaurd a bit! The kids love playing outside with buddy, the water, and anything dangerous:) Nico's vocabulary has increased so much since his speech therapy started and it is amazing how much he has to say about everything. We took the kids to our neice's dance recital and they both LOVED it....Lulu fell asleep but Nico clapped and cheered the whole time! Then we went to a carnival...yes, I am always up for carnival food and entertainment...but we weren't sure what to expect from Mr. Nico. He wanted to go on every ride and didn't have an ounce of fear! There was this one ride that was a fire truck and went in a big circle and then stopped at the top.....Nico started to climb out of his seat and I started to scream! Luckily he sat back down and finished the ride without injury.

Here are some pics of random events etc. I just can't believe how big both of them are getting.

I look at the pictures last summer of Nico and he seemed so little! Lulu has caught the summertime tradition and loves corn on the cobb and watermelon! She is one determined little

girl and fights to the end to get what she wants! A couple of saturdays ago we went down to Castle Rock and bought her first pair of shoes! I really didn't want to get pink shoes but it was the only color they had. She thinks they are fabulous and walks around looking down at them and then runs into things!

Mother's Day was really special this year! We went to the museum with my

parents and Charlie's mom and then when we came home we played outside in

the pool. This is Lulu in her little strawberry outfit begging to go

outside with her dad and brother.

Yes, this is Nico's favorite Monkey hat....he is finally

okay with sharing it.
I couldn't resist....Nico and Charlie watching Barney and
relaxing! I love their little nuggets!

I think this captures Lulu in her Godzilla moment!
We call her Godzilla because she destroys everything
in her path. Block towers, train tracks, books on shelves...watch out..
here she comes!


Nico helping Lulu by showing her all of the buttons on the
fire truck. Now, she pushes Nico around on the fire truck and
giggles the whole time!
