Grandparent's Day, Birthday Parties, and a Trip to Grandma's House

A busy week for us with Addie's dentist appointment, T-Ball, Grandparent's Day at School, and a weekend of Birthday Parties (for Ayson and Mommy) and wood splitting for Daddy (Addie went with Daddy to Grandma Collene's) and bathroom finishing (only a little bit left to do and then Mommy will take another picture:).

Monday evening investigating a bug while Mommy and Daddy conducted the daily garden checks.


Check out Addie's expressions while swinging :)










Addie's Dentist appointment was on Tuesday and she did really well while waiting and during her teeth cleaning and check up with the Dentist.  Just like Ayson, she is in the "No Cavities" club!  Good job, Addie.  NOW, we just need to work harder on her thumb sucking habit!


Gianna came over to play on Tuesday evening!!!!  Hi Gi!!!





The kiddos goofed around at the "Little Park" on Wednesday evening.


The kids had another T-Ball game on Thursday.  Daddy's camera has some pretty cool special effects! Check out the black/white mixed in with the normal color.


Ayson was more interested in playing in the sand than in the game...so much so that he missed a chance to get the ball AND he did not even notice when his team left the field!! :)


Addie was the clean up hitter and coach ran the bases with her. Thanks, Coach Tim!!




Ayson on the "monkey bars" all by himself after T-Ball.


Finishing up their dinner...Addie had already taken off her clothes when she decided that she was still hungry:)


Friday was Grandparent's Day at Ayson's school and Grandma Collene attended for Ayson.  Ayson was THRILLED to have Grandma with him. He could not stop asking us, "Guess what is special about Friday?!"
Apparently, Ayson did get a little nervous as he did not see Grandma right away and he thought that Grandma FORGOT about him!!!  Awe! Then, Ayson spotted Grandma and the smiles began!
Note- the picture looks a little wide but Mommy HAD to cut out the butt that was right next to Ayson's head (notice the arm) and somehow doing that messed up the picture as Mommy is positive that she did not stretch the photo:)

Friday night was gorgeous and we played at the Little Park, posed for a picture with the near Full Moon, and then had S'mores...yum!


Saturday had the family going in different directions!  Ayson and Mommy attended a Birthday Party at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo in Syracuse while Daddy and Addie went to Grandma Collene's so that Daddy could help Grandma split the last few huge pieces of wood.

Happy Birthday, Amanda!  (the little girl in the blue ruffle dress)


Afterwards, Mommy and Ayson checked out the animal exhibits and we ended up walking around with Parker (Ayson's BEST friend) and Mom.

Mommy laughed when she saw this sign next to the elephant exhibit that is getting an expansion.


The penguins were a BIG hit, of course!


The boys had fun squeezing into small spaces in the "rocks" in the zoo.





Best Buds








Grandma and Daddy were busy splitting wood and keeping an eye on Addie.
It appears that Addie might have been giving Grandma Collene a bit of attitude...


Go, go, go!


Ah, a little soak after all of the wood splitting!


On Sunday, Ayson attended another friend's Birthday Party (Caleb).


The boys had fun putting leggos together!
