Car and Boat Show, Plus work on the house

About a month ago we had a big storm that knocked down part of our fence. Will had to pull out the rotted posts, and Nathaniel helped. He loves helping Will on projects. He was pleased with his work, as you can tell.

He loves to help out and feed the brothers.

Since he's cute, he got invited onto someone's boat

So glad the big boys could some fun outside in the nice weather!

Seven Month Pictures

It seems like the time between six and seven months flew by!

Joel started out kind of sleepy during our photo shoot but he worked through it. :)

Such sweet and adorable boys! We are so blessed.

Sitting, Scooting, Rolling

The little boys continue to be on the move. They are starting to sit up really well.

Last week they scooted and rolled to take apart the puzzle Nathaniel put together. Joel went first - when I moved him somewhere else, Seth did the exact same thing.

One day Nathaniel had a blast building towers for the little boys and letting them knock the towers down.

Joel's First Tooth

Joel's first tooth broke through yesterday. Finally! Poor guy had a knot there for quite a while.

Art and Animals

Lately Nathaniel has been playing a lot with his stuffed animals. I can't believe next year he'll be at Kindergarten, and not have much time left for playing. This is a picture of all of his animals asleep. We had to whisper while his animals slept. I guess he's used to being quiet while the babies sleep. :)

He even let the little boys play with his animals too.

I love the faces on the people he draws. They are so expressive. I hope he continues to enjoy art.

This was Nathaniel, Daddy and Mommy going for a walk.

He was pleased with the whiskers on the Cat in the Hat.

We received some tinker toys from a friend whose son is too old for them. This is a fork and a plate of beans.

This is a pancake tower.

Love this boy and his creativity!

First Store Trip

Last Friday, I took the little boys to the store on my own. This was my first time to take them both. I am wearing Seth and Joel is in the carseat in the basket. Joel looks asleep but he quickly woke up. I didn't have much room for groceries because the carseat took up most of the room, but we made it out of the house and I got just what I could fit in the cart. The boys didn't make a peep, just looked around at everything. I was tired when I got home between wearing Seth and loading and unloading groceries. However, I was pleased we made it. Not the best picture, but you get the idea.
