Building Blocks and Bubbles.

It is a lot of fun blowing bubbles with Roland these days. We wait for a breeze so the wind carries the bubbles high in the sky and we follow them until they finally POP.  We also like to construct TALL buildings until they tip over.  But this afternoon we were able to use all of our Lego's and still have it standing. Its at least 8 inches taller than the photo.  I can see so much growth in Roland.  He wanted to tip it over but I asked him to wait until Uncle Roman showed up (15 minutes later) and he did a great job waiting.

Sprinkler Fun 2013-2014

Its fun to look at last years sprinkler fun and compare it to this year.  I think that running in circles is the normal back yard sprinkler sport.  June 2013-May 2014.

We Almost Made It! Dark and Spooky

Kasey invited me to join her and Roland to go see Sesame Street Live.  She got tickets for the  "Meet and Greet" before the show.  That was a bit iffy and foreshadowed the rest of the event.  Roland was not happy to be in the big arena and when the lights went out and the LOUD music started he did his best to hold his own (although we had front row seats and then went to sit higher so he could cry unobstructed). The breaking point was when there was lightening and thunder and we surrendered.  On the way out we saw other families whose little ones could not handle the commotion of large crowds and loud noises too.   We all do the best we can.   So a few snaps of the Meet and Greet.

The Count!

Lets' get out of here! I don't need a photo with Grover!!!!!

The Sprinkler!

We had our first hot spell this week so we broke out the sprinkler.  I was thinking back to last summer and how Roland was a chubby little boy and now he has grown lean and tall.

Mother's Little Helper!

Kasey invited me over for a  Mother's Day Brunch with Uncle Roman and it was wonderful.  Roland was a great helper watering the garden.

Who's That!

Roland and Papa love to search the web. This afternoon Roland was sitting at Papa's desk and watching his own blog.  Wow that's mama, Wow that's Dada...etc
