splash park with stacy and sammy and a super tall mega block tower.

thursday, august 19, 2010.

today we went with stacy and sammy to the SPLASH PAD at ALTADENA PARK in phoenix. we had heard great things about this one from several people, but had never ventured over until today. it was AWESOME. tons of water features and then huge playground equipment right behind it. it was so clean and not too crowded. just PERFECT.

abraham running. to the left of abe is a huge sand area with four diggers. levi would run over there every once in a while.

lity going trough the hoops.

sammy sam getting sprayed.

levi shooting water at abraham. abey trying to escape.

soaked.

my little monkey hanging. he totally slipped off and fell to the ground, but it didn't phase him.

splashing.

abraham doing his funny skip along.

levi filled his hat with water and tried to soak me. i was already drenched though!!!

abraham with levi's hat. getting ready to fill it:)

levi and a sea horse.

back home levi decided to make a high MEGABLOCK TOWER. he was even carrying pieces in his mouth.

so TALL.

ta-da. it even has a roof on it!!!

mega blocks, hair cuts, jackets, hats, and whistles

sunday, may 23, 2010. so abe started running a FEVER friday night. saturday morning i took him to the doctors and got him another round or antibiotics for what we thought was a lingering sinus infection. he had ended his last round on monday the 17th for what really was a sinus infection. however, he kept coughing in the mornings and so bad on wednesday that my mom could hear him in the next hotel room when we were in cali. now i'm not so sure the fever is from the sinus infection because he woke up today, shortly before 6 am (ouch), running a fever and then PUKING (sorry, graphic i know) 3 times. we went back to sleep and when he woke up, he was back to his normal self. he kept down his ibuprofen which lowered his temperature. we skipped church. instead levi requested my help in making a "CARPORT" out of mega blocks for his tractor and trailer.

joshua had been begging me for a couple of weeks to cut his hair. today was the day we finally had an opportunity to do so. it was super windy, but gorgeous out. levi wanted me to cut his hair too because a HAIRCUT=LOLLY POP. so, even though he and abe didn't really need one, i gave them a little trim up and a lolly. here are they're BEFORE AND AFTERS. the boys you can barely tell:)

         

   

       

we were so excited about the COLD weather tonight. this may be the last time they wear JACKETS for a while. tonight joshua took the boys over to the torrington's to watch the SUNS game. i stayed home and worked on my new little HOBBYof blogging.

the boys wanted to put HATS on. abe's head is so HUGE his doesn't fit anymore. 

when i asked to take a picture of them both smiling this is what abe did. joshua and i were dying!

this one is the BEST. abe gets SO loopy before bed. i LOVE levi's i heart music shirt.

***Levi learned how to WHISTLE today. he'd been trying to learn because espen was whistling on our trip to CA. he is so excited!***
