Riding a bike




Alyssa got her first bike this week and did really well riding it. She was able to go on her own on just the second time she rode it!

Putting the little guy to work


Tyler tried to help with the mulching this weekend...

Parent celebration in Alyssa's class




Alyssa's class had a special afternoon program this week for mom's and dad's. Of course she and Jackson, her special buddy, mugged for the camera, too.

Raaaarrrrrrr




Tyler was having fun mugging for the camera...

Hugging the Bears






While we were in Chicago we played in a nice little park in Wicker Park. Tyler especially enjoyed hugging the bears.

Meeting Harrison





Last weekend we took a trip to Chicago to meet little Harrison. He's such a sweet little guy!

More playground fun...



Ready for soccer

Alyssa sporting her soccer outfit. The only time we can get her to wear shorts. And she makes us promise to let her put a skirt on as soon as it's over.

Fun at the Playground

Having fun at the playground... Big news - Alyssa was able to go down the "big twisty slide" all by herself this year!

Bubbles





Our first, of what I'm sure will prove to be many, afternoons playing with bubbles

A beautiful day

Just the right size


We have a new ottoman in the family room. Tyler's found it's just the right size for him.

Up and Down, Round and Round...




We went to the zoo last week and Alyssa loved the Carousel. I had one hand on Tyler, so I wasn't able to get a shot of him too. He didn't enjoy it nearly as much as she did.
