Picnic at the Park

We thought it would be fun to take a little picnic to the park tonight.  We grabbed some pizza and strawberries and went for a little hike.

Cameron loved his sunglasses.  He had them on his head, on his chin, and on his eyes.  So funny.

Digging in the secret hide out.

Fishing in the stream.

Cameron loves laying on rocks to reach into the stream.

These two make life so fun.   I love watching them explore and hearing their fun ideas.  Their imaginations always make me smile. 

Playdough and the Park

These two littles love playing with play dough.  They love building, cutting and shaping.

They are so funny.  Cameron went through about 20 different colors while Hunter stayed with the same color the whole time.  They love coming up with new ideas together about how to play with the play dough.
We also went to the park to play.

Even though we have a sand box Cameron loves playing at the park in the sand box there.

Hunter's favorite thing to do at the park is pretend that we are all super heroes.  Here is Superman.

I love our mornings at the park.

Zoo Trip

The zoo was so fun today. 

We took our time exploring and were able to let the boys dictate the trip.

First we explored the treehouse.  Sometimes it is a castle and sometimes it is a haunted house. 

Then we began to check out the Arizona section.

The boys are obsessed with snakes, lizards, turtles, all of the desert animals.

Feeding the tigers.

The boys took turns relaxing and pulling the wagon.

The baby bear was right next to the glass playing with it's ball and the boys were mesmerized.  We spent a long time staring and laughing at the cute bear.

Then the boys had so much fun splashing around in the splash pad and making friends.  I love exploring the zoo with my two little adventurers.

Mother's Day

This Mother's Day was so much fun with my three wonderful boys.  The boys made me breakfast in bed.  They ran up and down the stairs showing me my gifts and my card.  I think Cameron opened my gift almost 7 times before giving it to me.  It was adorable and so funny.  They were so excited to celebrate mommy and it was such a wonderful day.  I cannot imagine my life without my boys, they are my world, my everything.  I always tell my little guys I am the luckiest mama ever.  No mother's day for me is complete with out contemplating the two beautiful and selfless women who changed my life forever.

 I often think how empty and lost I would feel without my boys and when I look at my boys I see their birth mothers every day.  They are in my thoughts, they are in our conversations, they are in my heart.  I love these women so much and spent time today talking to my boys about their birthmothers and all of their love for them. 

We had a lot of fun making gifts for the grandma's.  The boys loved getting a chance to paint.  Even if it meant painting their bodies and with their bodies.  These two had so much fun making a mess.

All covered in paint and having so much fun.  These two little men are so silly.

 We were able to go to my grandma's grave on Mother's Day and celebrate her with the boys.  She was such a kind of loving grandma and was such an inspiration for good.  I love talking and sharing with the boys about my grandma.
