A Day in the Park with Daddy

Yesterday Chris had the day off.  Hip Hip Hooray!  This was so good because I am sick and have been since Friday.  Ugh!  I have a sinus infection.  I got in to see a doctor yesterday, but she told me I have to be sick for 3 more days before she will give me antibiotics.  Grrr.  I don't have time to be sick for 3 more days.
So I demanded asked Chris take the boys out for a while so I could get some rest.  Chris took the boys to get lunch and went to the park to have a picnic.

Sandwiches

Zebra Cakes, Yum!

He also taught Shaden how to use our camera. 

Shaden took the following pictures:

Isn't this a great picture from a two and a half year old? 

Funny thing about being a parent... You always remember to put sunscreen on your kids, but sometimes forget to put it on yourself.  Yup, the boys are sunburn free, but Chris's arms and face aren't.

Hope I don't kill them...

No, I'm not talking about the boys.  :P
I'm talking about the plants in my little "garden."
My parents gave me some herb seeds and Chris and I picked out a tomato plant and a jalapeno plant.  So far they are doing well.  I just haven't had the greenest thumb in the past... mostly I just end up killing them.  So, I say again... I hope I don't kill them.

Basil

Jalapeno

Marjoram, Dill, Thyme, & Cilantro

Big Boy Beds!

On Memorial Day we went to American Furniture Warehouse and picked out a twin bed for Shaden.  It was delivered today!  Shaden getting a Big, big boy bed means Jayce can now have the toddler (big boy) bed.

Jayce loved climbing in and out of his new bed, but wasn't quite sure about sleeping in it... He kept saying "no" every time I said "laid down in your new bed."  Thanks to not napping he did end up laying down and going to sleep.
Shaden thinks it was so cool that "Guys" came and brought his bed.  He is also excited that it has drawers.

The toddler bed all made up for Jayce.

His favorite stuffed animal at the moment... Stitch.

New sheets for the twin bed... Cool Cars.

Couldn't find any yellow sheets that we liked.
