The rest of the pictures I forgot :)

Another cool feature at the aquarium
Dylan behind bars at Farm Country
Dylan and Christopher exploring farm country. Of course I missed getting the picture of the calf that got a hold of Dylan's shirt and was not going to let go.
This is another perfect moment to describe Christopher. Of course it has to be my son that goes into the play house and starts picking up rocks and throwing them, sometimes at the other kids. This is Grandma Desiree escorting my little monster out of the play house. I still love him, even if the other children that were unlucky enough to meet him today don't.

Living Planet Aquarium and Farm Country

The boys got so spoiled today. Grandma Desiree took us to the Living Planet Aquarium and Farm Country, the boys had such a great time! They have so many cute things there for little kids. The frogs were one of Dylan's favorites!
They also have a huge open tank with Manta Rays that you can pet. Dylan was so terrified of them. Once all of the rays were on the other end of the tank Dylan decided to get brave and test the water..... then the rays begin to swim back towards him and he freaked out, hilarious Mom moment :) I hope that doesn't make me sound really mean. I wish I would have gotten a picture of the ray coming up the side of the tank towards him but of course the really cool stuff happens the second I put my camera away.
Dylan loved the coral reef tunnels. They have a huge playground thing of them that the kids can explore. So cool!

This was at the end of our visit at the aquarium. We began leaving and Christopher decided he wanted to stay and he was going to get away.

Dylan

This is Dylan. My oldest baby. Lately I've really been having a hard time coping with how big he's getting. I still see him as my little baby. This fall he will be starting preschool. When I was writing the check for his registration it really hit me. My baby is officially starting preschool, and then comes Kindergarten and 1st grade and then middles school and high school. Wow, I need to get a hold of my emotions again. Time really goes by way too fast.



He never ceases to amaze me. He comes up with the funniest things and always makes me laugh. He is generally a really nice older brother and loves when he gets to "help" take care of Christopher. I just wish I had a little bit of his energy.

One of my ridiculous little guys

This is Christopher. Mischief maker, yes. Adorable, yes. Christopher can push every single one of my buttons during the day and drive me to the point of insanity, but the second he falls asleep or flashes one of his mischievous smiles my heart melts again at that sweet little face.

So a little more about the picture. For starters I love sleeping with at least 4 pillows. A habit I've always had. The more pillows, the more comfortable. So when I checked on Christopher and found him sleeping like this I laughed so hard. Then I had to get Kelly to come look at him too. THEN I had to get find my camera and take a picture. Christopher definitely inherited my sleeping habits, and we'll just blame his stubborn attitude on Kelly....
