June Stuff



Henry is talking lots and lots. When he says thank you, he says "bink you" - he got a ride on toy for his birthday that he calls his airplane and he loves to scoot around on that outside. In fact, he loves being outside in general, to swing, play in the sand-table, or ride on the lawnmower while Steve cuts grass. The other day the trailer was at the house from the farm and Henry drug his play tractor up on the trailer and left it there for many days - it was very cute :) He also likes to help me water our plants and flowers and the child sure can EAT - he has a big appetite! He loves "mute nacks" from Grandma (fruit snacks)-






Jake got asked to be on the All Star Tball team and we have had 3 games so far. Jake is the 2nd string, so to say, but he got a great hit today and got to second base before the inning was called. We are working with him on running fast to 1st base because he tends to slow down as approaches the base - we told him to just plow through the people if he feared they were in his way :)






We also went to the beach at Nags Head for 2 days, with my Mom, and the boys enjoyed it. Although Henry was NOT fond of the waves, water, or sand, and preferred to sit on the towell or

in the chair :) Jake built sandcastles and dug for sandfiddler crabs. Cousin Luke came with us one day and spent the night with us in the hotel. We also ate dinner with him, Kristen, and Baby Anna at the Black Pelican restaurant :)

Kids can say the cutest things!

This morning, Henry woke up, sat up in bed, and said "I want chip dip - have some downstairs?" - How cute is that? I guess he was hungry for some chips and dip :) In the middle of the night, we said "patchie-boo" which is our nickname for our cat Patch. He must have been dreaming of him. And then when Steve jokingly asked Henry "How is your hair?" (because it is always wild in the morning when he wakes up), Henry replied with "pretty" :)

Jake has been practicing catching "pop flies" with Steve to get ready for Tball All Star practice (he got chosen for the All Star team and got Best Infielder) for the regular season. He was catching them in his glove really well today!

Jake likes to play McDonalds Drive Thru and the other day he ordered a pretend salad. I asked him what type of dressing and he said "Chinese" :)

Henry calls fruit snacks Moot Nacks~
