Field Day

Keaton's last day of school was Field Day. I walked over and followed him around a while so I could take a few photos. There were baby bunnies there....almost four weeks old-- how cruel is that?? Seriously. The cutest things I've seen since, well, since the last time I saw precious, sweet, adorable baby bunnies! Keats, being a huge fan of the soft & cuddly creature club, wanted to hold the bunnies the entire time, but he did do some other stuff, too.

Another Walkabout

Just another field adventure we had this summer. Notice how tall some of the grass is on the boys...but they still insist on taking these adventures with me!

After School Adventure

These photos are actually from the last day of school for Keaton, which was June 14th. I missed posting a lot of photos this summer and am going to try to make up for it now. I have about two weeks before I go back to school!

I love to take the boys on adventures to the field near our home. There are "mountains" that they love to climb and just lots of bugs and miscellaneous stuff to look at and do; we also come out at a big park, which the boys love. Here are photos from one of our adventures.

It's like Lord of the Flies! Pick up a big stick, start making the rules, you're in charge, boy!

Here they are at the top of one of their "mountains".

So cute! Sully does everything his big brother does, and goes everywhere his big brother goes.

Normally this behavior makes Keats yell "STOP COPYING ME!!" but I guess it's okay for Sully to copy Keats when they are trying to take over the world....or at least the local field.

This is a little bridge next to our home. The boys love looking at the creek and trying to see sharks. ;o)

By The Way...

...did you notice it had only been four days between my postings??? Thankyouverymuch I RULE!!

Green Lantern Birthday Party

Sully wanted a Batman-themed birthday for the past several months. (yes, they discuss their birthdays year-round!). When it came time to actually get the party set up, I asked if he still wanted Batman and he said nope--he now wanted Green Lantern. I'm not even sure how he knew about Green Lantern; he'd never seen a movie or cartoon of the character. But, come on!! A green superhero?!? Who needs to know more than that when your favorite color is GREEN and you've never met a superhero you didn't like (or wouldn't dress up as/wear underwear printed with their image)!!!

The next five photos are my favorite. Of course Sully is cute blowing out his candles but watch the changes in Keaton's expression. So cute!

I know, I know...

...I suck at this blog-updating thing lately. Again--- sorry! My newest excuse is terribly lame: I am taking an upper-level art class this semester and we have to post photos of our work on a Google site called Picasa. To do this, I have to log out of my blog and log into the school folder. Apparently it is just too much to ask to have me log out of my school folder and into my blog. See? I told you it was a ridiculous excuse!

So, my youngest child is now FIVE YEARS OLD! I'm not entirely sure how that happened but, considering how much sleep I've lost in the past five years, I'm not entirely sure I want to relive the time to soak it all in! Sully is such a good kid! He is mellow and snuggly and very, very silly. Even his tantrums are extremely mild, in contrast to his brother at least. His one issue is sleep, or lack thereof. One day he'll be a teenager and will sleep all day, right? RIGHT??!! Better be right!

Here are some photos from his actual birthday on Monday. His party will be this Saturday. I promise I'll have those photos on the blog within, ohhhh, a year. ;o)
