Picture Updates

Our recent trip to Ontario was full of noise, play, music, laughter, tears, board games, late nights, chatting, snacking, walks, adventures and family.  What a wonderful time we had!  It was fun watching Silas and Toby interact with their myriad of cousins.  So far there are 7 cousins and 1 in the making (all under the age of 6).  BUSY.  Here are some pictures from our time:
Eating at the 'kids' table- Silas, Kellon and Allie

Jacob too!

Uncle Chris, Tayte and Toby

Lovin' the Jolly Jumper

Silas with Levi and Jacob- all smooshed on the couch

COUSINS!

Watchin' a video

At the museum of Civilization- Such a cool Children's Museum!

Silas- captain of the ship

juice boxes!!!!

Exersaucer madness


my beautiful blue eyed Toby

they all loved Toby- he always had an audience!

Allie and I- she's so precious!  Makes me want a girl badly!

ummmm. chaos.

Back at home!  Toby's almost 4 months already and (gulp) still not sleeping through the night.  But he is cute as a button.  He is generally a happy fella (except the last couple of days of course).  He LOVES being held, love sucking on his hands, is a big fan of the jolly jumper and is just discovering his laugh.  He sleeps on his tummy and giggles when I play peek-a-boo.  He has the cutest pouty lip cry when he is hungry and knows mommy's face well.  He's a cutie!  I'm enjoying this stage a lot more than I think I did with Silas. Maybe because he stays where I put him, is somewhat predictable in his needs, and doesn't talk back?  Isn't he cute?  As much as we thought he looked SO much like Silas at birth, he is becoming his own little person.  Even more than Silas- he looks like his daddy!  His eyes, his ears, his skin....a little Brink boy for sure!




Striped boys
 
Discovering Jell-O jigglers for the first time

Our place is a mess right now: jackhammering, digging, sawing, on our front porch, around the side of our home and behind our house.  We have to use the garage for an entrance!  I'm annoyed by the noise and the fact that they interrupt naps but Silas loves watching the tractors!!! [They are fixing the drainage in our complex]

Shaving cream painting.  SO. FUN!  Silas loved it and spent a good hour playing with it.  [He smelled very manly afterwards!]
