Look at that fierce look of determination on Reid’s face! The boys were taking in some fresh air and getting some practice crawling in the early evening this week when I got home. It was so nice to be outside!

Griffin continues to love going to bed with Lily and he also is continuing to enjoy making forts for them to sleep in. I got extra pillows out of the closet this week and Finn immediately turned them in to an obstacle course in the hallway. 🙂 Here are a few shots from Debbie of the boys getting ice cream at Handel’s, Finn and Debbie playing swords, and a tidbit of what Reid had to eat – two whole sausages along with other things! This boy, I can hardly get him to eat this much for me, likely because we are on the go so much on the weekends. Sometimes I see these entries and I’m floored at the volume that he eats! We went on a family walk the other night for the first time in f-o-r-e-v-e-r and it was GREAT! Griffin loved it so much and I really enjoyed us all being together getting some fresh air. I wish this was something that we were able to do more but our current life phase and work schedules just don’t seem to allow for it very often.  Good old Brutus and Griffin – Brutes has a packet of pecans in his mouth and is giving his pathetic “please pay attention to me” look.  Reid has been up a couple nights during the night this week. He’s usually easily consolable but he definitely wants to be snuggled for a bit.  Saturday morning it was another Daddy and the boys adventure day with breakfast at Bob Evans and a trip to Aldi.  And here are a couple from Finn’s Sunday flag football game. he’s regularly the center and a couple times a game gets to run the ball. He’s getting much more confident in his running game once he’s handed the ball compared to the first part of the season. He’s so different playing in the driveway and with family or friends than playing on his team where he’s typically much more reserved.  I’m noticing a theme here – playing in the rain! Guess we should add that to our summer bucket list!
