swimming

the other day we drove past the pool
noah said he wanted to go swimming
i said we would soon, but not that day
so i guess he got sick of waiting and took matters into his own hands
yesterday we found him playing in a full sink of super cold water
he said, "i goin' swimming"

noah, you are hilarious!

maybe we'll go swimming today
in a real pool

going, going, gone

hazel is (finally) walking


and she is such a cute walker
but not such a good listener
she thinks she is so funny walking away
she walks where she wants and
laughs the whole time
silly girl

a visit to my brother's house

this last weekend
we went on a little drive
to see my brother his wife and their 4 darling kids
they were so sweet and watched our kids so we could go to the temple
it was really nice
and we enjoyed spending time with their family

hazel and her bff


this is hazel and her friend crystal
aren't they the cutest?
hazel's just 5 weeks older than crystal
and they're super similar
it's really fun to watch them play together
especially in matching pjs (not planned)

mr independent

today while we were eating dinner
michael and i were talking about what we needed from the store
noah asked if we were going grocery shopping
we said we weren't
he said "i go grocery shopping....by myself"
we asked what he was going to get
his response wasn't very easy to understand
especially when we asked how he would get there
he said "i go five click and then i be there"
it seemed like an odd mode of transportation
but we gave permission anyway and said "....ok"
noah was so excited about the thought of going by himself to the store
until he realized a harsh reality
and said "....i can't open the door" (it's childproofed)
we all laughed
the end
