jack's new favorite thing

we got jack a big boy bike for easter and he has pretty much refused to ride it since then. we coerced him to ride it this weekend. he figured it out pretty fast and realized that his bike will get him places faster than his little legs.

the helmet is covering his eyes a little, but you can still see his big smile!

jack and our nice neighbor zack

jack learned quick to jump off the bike when it was starting to fall

jack looking around to see if anyone else saw his smooth move

he was also a pro at rolling it out. because of the gear, he didn't get any scrapes and would get right back on the bike to go for more.

jack keeping up with the big kids (rather the big kids being sweet and going slow for him!)

yummy food

to all of you who live in the dc area (or plan to visit us soon) my sister in-law lauren's parents have opened a new filipino cafe/asian market in manassas. we haven't been yet, but know from experience that the food her parents make is amazingly yummy!!! check it out sometime or come with us this weekend.

seely farm

we got to go to seely farm last week. it is always a blast for the kids. the seely's are so nice to let us come and we are excited to go again this weekend!
the goats were so friendly and nice, the kids loved them

jack paused for a moment for a picture, he and the other boys were having fun chasing the chickens and ducks.

nate and his future wife maggie (at least according to kimber and i)

nate couldn't get close enough to see the moo cow

jack begged to have charlie come over afterwards, so i got the pool out to cool off and soak the yuck off of them.
they had a blast and got along perfectly all day (morning until bed time!)

fun at papa's house

it's been a few weeks since we've been back, but wanted to post a few pics of some of the fun the boys had. i've got the BEST sister in the world. she cuts my kids hair (and mine too of course).

jack was impressively good for monica

nate sat so still for his first haircut from monica (she had to fix all of my mistakes)

drinking water is so much more fun from a squirt bottle

jack thinks nate should enjoy it just as much

nate's favorite seat

some air

nate loved gran's grand piano

jack hitting balls, my cousin in-law scott was his best friend after playing with him for hours
