The Boys

With Addilyn away at school all day, I've had a chance to focus on the boys.

Isn't Asher cute?  

Elias too?

Since Asher's preschool status was uncertain, we started doing some preschool-ish activities at home.  Last week was 'A' week.  We started with painting some letter 'A's.  

These boys love to paint!

Then we worked with some playdough.  We made some alligators.

Asher made an 'A'.

Elias was working on making some snakes, I think.

Albert had a rough evening.  He screamed for at least 10 solid minutes at dinnertime and then feel asleep on Daddy.  Daddy then got to eat his dinner sitting in the rocking chair.  When Albert woke up, he was fine.  Apparently he just needed to reboot.

On a hot afternoon last week, Addilyn was invited to go to the splash park with some friends after school.  The boys were pretty bummed they couldn't go.  We decided to have our own water fun at home.  We went outside and "watered the plants" which pretty much involves occasionally spraying the garden and drenching Elias.  Afterward, we headed in for a very long bath.  

"Hey guys, whatcha doing?"

"That looks like fun. Can I play too?"

 "Oh, hi there, Baby Albert."

"Silly baby! You can't come in the tub with us."

"There, there."

"But here's a toy."
He seemed pretty happy with the arrangement so I guess that did the trick.
