Say, "CORN"!

We had a yummy Memorial Day dinner on the patio.  It had to include sweet corn:-)  Jacob & John's first try at it...and they both went for the end of the cob!?  I guess we have some teaching to do as the summer progresses!

Lair of the Bear!

We had a fun outing to Lair of the Bear park.  There was the perfect trail that followed the mountain creek.  I have a feeling we'll be here often in the coming years--especially once the boys are big enough to play in the water:-) 

Best $5 I ever spent:-)

My girlfriend, Kristen, and I had an indulgent morning of Starbucks and garage saling ALONE.  After 30 minutes, we completely filled her SUV and had to stop back at our house to drop stuff off!:-)  I spent $30--and two of my best finds were this Step 2 play sink (the water recirculates from the tub up through the faucet), and this Lincoln Logs castle.  Each were $5--and have each been a great payback already!

Attempted (and failed) Kenny wake-up

Rainy Wednesday Afternoon

Kenny was busy reading on the sofa, so Jacob, John & I took some books out to the porch to read in the rain:-)  The J's quickly turned to rock play, and I checked on Kenny to find this.  Yes, it's 5PM--and I can't seem to wake him!  Bound to be an interesting night....

Circus! Circus!

The old-fashioned, big top circus came to Highlands Ranch over the weekend.  We decided that Jacob & John weren't quite old enough, so Darin and Kenny ventured out alone.  They had a great time--the elephants were a big hit.  Amazing to me that our little burb brought this in--but that's why we live here:-) 

Kenny's 3 Yr Check-up Stats

I can't believe that Kenny is 3!  My new favorite parenting quote is, "The days are long, but the years are short."  How true!  Darin took Kenny to his 3-yr check-up.  They did great (it was a little weird not to be in on it!).  Kenny is 39.75" tall (89%) and weighs 30 lbs (31%).  The doctor wanted Kenny to draw a circle (the developmental check), and tried to show Kenny how he should hold the pen.  Of course our little Mr. Know-It-All wasn't having any of it and drew the circle the way he wanted.  Ha ha....
