The boys had fun this week being outside at the park, on walks, and doing the fun volcano experiment. Reid loved the swing at the park and Griffin gets really excited to push him and be a helper.  Look at the matchy-matchy socks and jammies. Griffin was so excited when I found pjs in Reid’s size that matched his newer dino jammies. And then we found socks too, lol. Griffin is still really in to his day of the week underwear and socks. Every day he asks what day it is and finds them in his drawer (usually the night before) and gets all matched up.
There have been a few times I’ve been in disbelief how much food that Reid eats during the day! I can’t ever seem to get Reid to eat much for me and one particular day Debbie put how much he ate and I was shocked! He is definitely a growing boy! He hums and reaches for something you might have or more of something he had on his plate.
Griffin and I took an evening adventure to Graeter’s one evening – complete in his jammies! He was so excited to go and at first in my head was thinking he would have to change into clothes and then I thought, why? Why be so perfect and have so many rules? So out we headed in our comfies to get some yummy ice cream. This boy sure has my sweet tooth. We got a new seat for Reid which is much like the one we had for Griffin though this one comes with a tray. At first I didn’t think I’d like the tray, but as it turns out it’s really nice to have something clean that we can put his food on and it has a cup holder which he thinks is great. This year on picture day for Flag Football they had a new digital format – each player got their photo taken in front of a green sheet (the coaches too) and then they photoshopped the team photo together. I was not a fan of this new method at all! We’ll see how the end product turns out.  Our sweet Brutus is always wanting affection. He regularly comes to me and just puts his head down on the bed, on my leg, on the chair, or wherever I am and just wants some lovin. And Lily regularly heads to the closet in our bathroom to her small camp-out spot. Especially if there is loud noises or any sort of package being opened. Somehow she became scared to death of popping bubble wrap or ripping tape off packages!
