Playing Catch Up!


When we leave for the weekend, I have a hard time posting pics from that week. I like to sit down on Friday evening (I'm officially old!) or Saturday morning and put together a post. If it doesn't happen one of those times, it is up in the air whether it will get done!

Summer is here! We are ready for a fun and relaxing summer. Lots of swimming, playing at the playground, and being lazy are on our agenda for the next 3 months!

May 20: Lots of outside chores dictated by Callen. Doug has an idea of what he wants to do for the day...and Callen lets him know what they are going to do!

Graham helping with the mowing

Our neighbors gave Cal this bike and he took it in the basement (along with the hose and half a bottle of dish detergent) and started cleaning it! He was so proud of himself and ran to get Doug to show him what he had been doing.


May 21: Callen uses his bunk bed as a jungle gym. He loves to climb on the outside of it and then jump into the middle of the room. We have a rule that he is not to climb, jump, etc. on furniture anywhere else in the house; but his room is fair game and he can climb, jump on/off whatever! He takes full advantage. (Although today he decided to start climbing the door frames. It wasn't furniture!! We have a little monkey on our hands)

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Super Callen!
May 23: Fun at the Children's Museum. Callen met a friend there, so he stayed occupied at each exhibit, giving Graham time to get out and play for a few minutes before having to move on to the next place.

Driving the race car
May 24: Cal's last day of school

First and Last days. AMAZING how much this boy has grown and matured in one school year.
May 25: Cal's last day of gymnastics


May 26: We went to Charleston for Memorial Day weekend! A great 3 days...

Graham enjoying his Happy Hour smoothie...he couldn't tilt his head back far enough!

May 27:
Enjoying some time on the boat
May 28:
Graham is working on his sea legs!
May 29: Oupa installed a cargo net for Callen to climb. He had a great time climbing!


May 30: I had the bright idea to attach Graham's car to Cal's trike by a bungee cord. Cal though this was the greatest idea, and has been pulling his brother everywhere now

Lazy Tired mom's solution to afternoon playtime!

May 31: Our first day at Gower Pool. I was born and raised a Forrester Woods 'woody'. Joining Gower is like cheering for USC. It just doesn't feel right!! But, it's the closest pool to us, and we really want Cal to be able to swim on the swim team (hopefully next year with Guppies). We are going to enjoy it. Cal had a great time his first day there and gets excited when I tell him we are going back. We know lots of people, so it will be fun to hang out with family friends all day.


June 1: Enjoying the nice afternoon temps and playing in the yard before daddy comes home.


Swinging in the yard and trying to capture the teeth on this boy! Braces are in his future.
