Tiptoe through the tulips

Kelton enjoyed running around Gamble Garden yesterday.

Ice skating

I took Kelton ice skating for the first time today. He did a great
job. The sunny 70 degree weather is pretty different from the 20
degree below zero weather I remember in Nebraska where I learned to
skate outside.

Playing together

Weston is enjoying playing tubes with big brother.

Little troublemaker

For a baby who can't even crawl yet, Brennan can sure cause trouble. He found the whole basket of bibs to throw around.

Reading together

Talking boys

I meant to post this a month ago:

Weston is new to the world of syllables. His favorites are 'bwa' and
'bla'. In between his 'words' are lots of raspberries and his
creaking door sounds.

Brennan has been saying 'dadada' and 'nanana' for a couple of weeks.
Now he's branching out to 'bababa'. Brennan while a quiet crier, has
always been a lively conversationalist.

On a blustery walk to the coffee/cocoa shop one rainy morning Kelton
learned about strong winds. Now he tells a reluctant Daddy to 'gust'
out of bed in the morning.

Unhappy!

Weston did NOT like fingerpainting.

Redwood huse

Kelton found a redwood tree circle which he called his house. He liked hiding behind a big bark. Weston liked the house too. David and Kelton enjoyed the sunny meadow after the chilly redwoods.

Art project

Kelton is helping Brennan with his first art project. We all did hand stamping.

Tidepooling

An extra low tide this weekend prompted us to head to the beach. David and I each had a baby in a bjorn. We couldn't scramble on the rocks as much, but we got out there. Kelton found a hermit crab and lots of anemones and snails.

Fun with Mommy's measuring cups

One way to keep two babies busy while they wait for lunch to be
served...

Carrots

Kelton loves harvesting from our garden. He's sampling the tiny
carrots we thinned from our row. He regularly picks and eats peapods
off the vine.

Curious hands

Two spiders

We're swinging with our twin friends Aiden and Ellie.

Making truffles

Kelton and I made dark chocolate orange truffles this week. They were delicious!

Fun at music class

The drum is a big hit with both babies.
