Jungle Jim's

We met up with friends at an indoor amusement park/arcade.  It was small, but perfect for a 2 1/2 year old.  I loved watching Porter run from thing to thing.  Then he'd get on a ride and look completely stoic.  Bumper cars he cracked a smile and laughed and then a few other times.  So, for Mr Expressive it was definitely out of the norm.  You might have thought he was not having fun, but he loved it.  The only thing he may not have loved was the roller coaster.  I was kind of shocked how fast it went.

Jonas even got in on some of the action. He rode the carousel on his own horse with his chubby cheeks bouncing away.  It was the fastest, ricketiest carousel I've ever seen.

His first time in the bumper cars this sweet girl said she'd go with him.  I snapped this cute photo with her arm around him.

 Our friend's the Mitchell's were there.

Nap time

Little Jonas is struggling lately to nap.  His rolling to sitting to standing is all getting in the way.  I hope he settles back down... I need a nap:).

My life

I am sure there will be lots of laughing and crying between these two over the years.

He found a new way to may ever the Plasma car.

Haircuts.

Tickles.

One night this boy snuck up to our room after we put him to bed and we found him lying in our bed fast asleep.  I'm pretty sure he is lonely all the way down in the basement.  We are hoping soon we can move him upstairs with Jonas.

Not a happy camper.  

Porter is all about doing tricks.  We do them almost daily if not more.  Here is coming down from balancing on one leg.

Thank goodness this boy is cute.  He has been a pill at night lately and sometimes for naps.  He now rolls onto his stomach then pushes up until he's sitting.  Then he screams/cries in his bed.  It's great he's working on his new skills, I just wish it wasn't while he should be sleeping. 

Those eyes

Today someone commented that Jonas' eyes were "trusting and curious".  They are.

Preschool

I bought a preschool book for Porter so we can work on learning.  He loves it and wants to work on stuff.  It is so fun to work with him and watch him learn.  I am so proud of my little smartie pants.
