Making a Bug Box at Lowe's

Last weekend, Todd went to a reunion of his high school buddies. I asked my parents to come and stay with me since I am the primary caregiver during the week, but I really count on help and some adult company on the weekends.

On Saturday morning, we went to a Build and Grow Clinic at Lowe's to make Bug Boxes. The boys had a great time.

This was the most posing that Henry would do with his box.

The Arboretum

We went to the Arboretum one day a couple of weeks ago. We haven't been there in a long time, and it was fun to look at it all again. It was really hot, but we finally found some water to play in....even though the frog fountains were not working.

We wore our bathing suits b/c it was really really hot, and we were planning to get in as much water as possible.

Our trusty cooler...

Miss Carla and Parker joined us. So nice to visit with another adult.

Leo's Zip Line

Leo saw this Zip Line on this cool website, and he wanted to make one.

He got frustrated by it at first and wanted me to help. I tried, but I just didn't have the patience to mess with it and get it all balanced. He gave up for awhile, and then he went upstairs and did it a different way in his bedroom. He got it to work all by himself.

Henry the Napper Update

We're no longer taking a nap EVERYday, but he usually does. I've discovered that I can put him down for a nap on the couch or my bed for just a little bit - he can go to sleep anywhere. Very nice. He gets this from his daddy.

On this day, he was in time-out for something....so he just went to sleep. That's the concrete floor in the kitchen.

We don't often get "babies" put to sleep around here, so I had to take a picture of this. Henry tucked him in for the night.
