Toby helped put fenders on the bike - then we went to the park (until Heather had to go potty - made it a short trip). It's turned cool nice and early this year so we enjoy being outside - TJ keeps commenting "that was a nice breeze"

Toby really did like the sand and the park - he just was sad that I took the camera away from him :(
Daddy's job: get the kids dirty

Mommy's job: give them baths :) 

Tool-Man Toby


Toby is really into all of the tools in the garage - he imitates everything I do and knows already how socket wrenches and bolts work as well as screw drivers and screws! He even wante me to "fix" the power screwdriver to work with a flat head screw!
He's photogenic, too! 

Mango juice Toby - he loves this stuff! I had to put it in a sippy cup though so he would stop biting the metal can to keep me from taking it from him .














Susan wanted me to put him in a booster seat for the back of the bike - he likes it, but it takes up too much room for when Heather rides with him too. 

We had a fun trip on last Saturday - off roading with the Wildungs!
Heather and Brittany in the back of Seth's truck at the top of a hill - the girls were very brave, especially since Seth had to "lie" to Brittany before going by telling her the trip was going to be flat









TJ was a good sport - maybe next time driving on steep inclines won't scare him so much :)












Tim's smoothie mobile handed the rocks well - he even got some scratches on it!












There was even water in the canyon - the kids found lots of frogs 

Toby close up after swimming















Kids outside playing















New bench seat for back of bike - now the WHOLE family can ride (Toby fits on back with TJ and Heather, too) - if we can just get Susan to lose her pride and ride around the neighborhood with us :)

 

Need to do an update to keep up with Susan's blogging. TJ and I watched "Suits on the Loose" last night on the back of the house while we swam - it was a good movie and also reminded me of the importance of journal writing. So, blogging is the current way to make journal writing fun!

This is TJ with his new Cars pajamas

Toby and Me after our swim - Toby loves to drink the water

What a hottie! Doesn't she look great?? 

Toby Helped Me in the garage on Saturday morning - we had to go swimming afterwards before mommy got home to clean up, but I had to get some pictures beforehand so I could show her what a good clean up job I did.

TJ and Heather look nice all dressed for church. Mommy does a great job getting them all ready for the Sunday trip





Toby and Heather in the new (to us) boat - a 1997 SeaDoo Speedster - they love sitting in it and Toby likes to "drive" with the steering wheel. The boat fits perfectly in our sideyard






Bored with the boat already? Heather is still in her pajamas so she must be waking up. Toby is yelling with excitement
