Wordless Wednesday - Fun in the Grass!

Warren's favorite thing to do outside is walk! Walk, walk and then walk around some more for endless fun! Second favorite thing? Trying to run in the grass! Just try and catch me, mommy! Third favorite thing? Sit in the grass and feel the different textures before getting back up to walk, walk and walk some more! How easily he is entertained and I'm happy to oblige!

I'm a New Contender on TopMomma.com ~ Help me out!

A few months ago I entered a picture of Warren with balloons on TopMomma.com and it finally made it to the front page! If you get a chance, please show Warren a little love by clicking on his picture! As new pictures are added the least popular are given the boot so I'd really appreciate it. And come on, isn't he adorable covered in balloons? How can you resist?

Leave a comment here letting me know you clicked and I promise to visit your blog and comment to show my appreciation! You can click on it as many times as you want!

Wordless Wednesday - Warren's Jungle Gym

Who needs a jungle gym when you have an ottoman? Warren's routine: climb up onto the ottoman, sit for 3-5 seconds looking all proud at the accomplishment and climb back down. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Over and over and over again more than a dozen times until he just can't quite make it up anymore. Lots of fun to watch!

Wordless Wednesday - Fun at the Park!

There is really no better way to spend the afternoon than going to the park with the boys. The fresh air always works to burn off some energy and they take great naps later. It feels good just to get outside, especially after a long Minnesota winter. I also love how easy it is to get fabulous pictures of the kids. The playground is a great backdrop and the kids are so thrilled to be there that it isn't tough to capture happy faces. (Can you tell I love hats?)

The only hard part is trying to get them into the car when it is time to go. Just one more time down the slide!!

Wordless Wednesday - Warren the Climber

Wow! I made it up here all by myself! I'm feeling pretty good!

But what would happen if I went up higher? Hmm...higher is fun!

If I just get this leg up over here...(grunt)

Almost there...yeah I did it! Man, I'm good. I'm so high. Yippee!!
(Good thing there is this crib mattress here in the back to sit on!)

I like it up here. I think I'll just stay here for a while. Lucian can't get me!

Oh, Daddy! Why do you have to ruin all my fun?

Wordless Wednesday- Warren and the Potty #2

Watching Warren play with this potty never seems to get old! Now we have progress from the last time. He went from sitting in the potty to truly sitting on the potty. Good job Warren!

Update: Just to clarify, this is Warren's older brother's potty that he simply enjoys playing with. (His older brother hasn't started using it yet either but will soon. He is 2 1/2) We aren't really starting early, although we do enjoy his interest in it!

Wordless Wednesday-Fearless Warren

Warren has become totally fearless and will stand on anything he can get up on. His new favorite is using Thomas. I couldn't resist snapping a couple of pictures before getting him down. Thomas is now waiting to be played with behind the baby gate in our dining room.

Wordless Wednesday - Warren and the Potty

This is how our son has decided to "use" his older brother's potty which has not yet been used for potty training and somehow ended up in our dining room. (Taking these pictures has also made me realize that I need to wash my walls. Sigh...)

Wordless Wednesday-Warren & the Cozy Coupe

Warren got his Little Tikes Cozy Coupe (Anniversary Edition) for his first birthday and LOVES it, as I'm sure you can see. It is still too early to play with it outside but it has become a fast favorite inside. It will be sad when it is no longer around. He loves to take rides all around the house in it and I love that it doesn't kill my back to do it! He also likes the "open the door, get inside, close the door, sit a bit, open the door, get out, close the door and repeat" process!

We Love Bubbles!

Both of my boys just love bubbles. Last summer Lucian had a huge fascination with bubbles and would get so excited at the mere site of them. You can see some video of his cute reaction to bubbles below.




Warren has also started to show a love of all things bubbles and it became one of his first words. Imagine my surprise to hear a 12 month old pick a word like bubble, or as he would say, bub-o.




Are bubbles a big hit in your house too???

Wordless Wednesday-Warren & the Bowl

Don't you just love the silly things babies do?

Wordless Wednesday-Packaging, Yippee!

Isn't it always the packaging they love more than the present itself?

Wordless Wednesday

Mmmm... yummy. Want some cake? I like to share! (Ok that isn't wordless but I couldn't help it.)

Grandma's 50th Birthday!

We had a fabulous time at Grandma's to celebrate her 50th birthday. Both kids had a blast. I had to show off these adorable pictures of Warren having a grand 'ole time with the balloons before Grandma arrived! It was almost impossible to get a picture of him because he was switching his direction every few seconds and jerking the balloons this way and that. It was so funny!
