One fun thing of summer with school kids- Summer Sports! Axel is in Basketball and Soccer this summer. He seems to like both and is learning a lot. I like it because they both help burn a little bit of his boy energy!
Ansel is finally walking!
He is about right on track with his brothers when they started walking. Walking at 15 Months :)
Favorite things:
*Playing in the tupper-ware drawer or with the post and pans- taking all of them out and spreading them through out the house.
*Climbing on to the couch. He thinks he's so funny because he can get himself up there now and reach for he blinds.
*No real words yet but starting to get very noisy at times.
*Loves most foods- veggies, fruits and even some meats.
*Wants to do any thing his bog brothers are doing. Drinking from water bottles, juice boxes, sitting on a bleacher seat, climbing on things, etc....
*Taps his toes when he's happy. Does this mostly when sitting- in the highchair or on the couch.
*Still likes to wake up at night. Goes to bed pretty well- just likes to wake up once for a bottle.
We love going to the Zoo- even better when we meet friends there! The boys and I go to the Zoo quite often. It helps that we have a membership :) Here are a few pictures from the last two trips we took to the Zoo. One with our friends and their girls and the next just me and the boys.
The Zoo has new Hawaiian Monk Seals. There was hula dances and face painting.
Of course he wanted to touch the snake! Yuck
Loved the lizard too
Snacking and watching the bird show
I love that Ansel just wants to be a part of the boys. He sat on the bleachers and ate his PB &J and drank a juice box just like the older two. So cute!
Ansel got his first hair! It is always an emotional moment for me- the first hair cut. It seems to take away one of the last 'baby' part of my almost toddler. (If he would only walk then I could call him a toddler). He sat on the chair by himself, drank his bottle and cried a little at the end. Not bad for the first time. I thought about getting sad when I left this little hair trimming at the salon but in the big picture what do I really do with them. I have one from each of the other boys- but for what- right? So I left it- Sorry Ansel you are so the 3rd boy in a busy house. I promise to still try and take pictures of things that you do but I might forget a few.
