Farm and Zoo

Last weekend was such a busy weekend. First on Friday we didn't go to school cause our friends Ms. Becca and Mr. Chris came up to play with us and take us out to lunch. We walked to Subway and ate yummy sandwiches, and of course we spent time in babyjail. Nate's favorite part was climbing all over Mr. Chris, he is so tall and is great at rough housing with us. He also has awesome shoes!!

Nate checking out Mr. Chris's tattoos - he thought they were pretty cool, he will have to wait till he is 18 though!

Nate with Mr. Chris and Ms. Becca - Alex was a little camera shy that day but gave everyone great hugs!

Saturday Mommy and Daddy took us to the Farm and we picked blueberries, raspberries and tomato we also bought cantaloupe, peppers, corn and zucchini. We saw goats and llamas and had way too much fun!

Needless to say we had great big naps on Saturday!! Sunday morning Mommy took us to the petting zoo. Alex did awesome and wasn't afraid of anything, and Nate was... well Nate and ran after EVERYTHING. We saw chickens, goats, sheep, a horse, an Emu named Mu, a pig, ducks, bunnies and a turkey. We had a blast!!

So that was just the weekend. On Wednesday Miss Jeanette came to visit us, we went swimming, Alex was doing awesome in the pool, floating on his own (with the arm floats) and kind of swimming,  and Miss Jeanette helped us eat lunch and get ready for naps before going out to lunch with Mommy. Busy week!!

Big news is Alex is finally moving to the 3 year old room at the end of the month and gets to be with Alex. He also will be starting an IEP program, special education, at the local elementary school in the next month so he gets more physical, occupational and speech therapy. So he will get to go to the elementary school a few times each week and spend his mornings there and then head off to daycare to play with Nate and our friends.

Phew.. that is one long update!! Enjoy!

Weekend Update

So we spent the weekend with Daddy while Mommy was in NoVa for Miss Katie's bridal shower. We went for walks, to the grocery store and we played, we also picked G/G up in Baltimore from their cruise.

Miss Cheryl came this morning for P/T. She likes how Alex is doing better on his knees and he is getting the hang of crawling on all fours, but she really want to see him relax his legs and also sit up by himself. So she worked with Alex on a big rubber ball. She also is going to send her friend the O/T out to visit us and help us with our eating, since we have decided to be difficult about it.

Alex is also getting a 3rd helmet, M/D want to give it a go and see if it will improve his head a little bit more.

Nate is getting into trouble as usual.

That's all for now. We are exhausted... time for a nap!
