Busy Weekend

 The kids have been keeping Joel and me on our toes lately.  AnaLeah continued to be fussy at the breast until recently.   There were cues that I could no longer ignore causing me to try a dairy-free diet.  Ana has been in a much better mood with the elimination of milk products in my diet.  Only time will tell if all of her digestive issues have been resolved.

 Levi continues to do a fantastic job with his big boy underpants.  He wanted me to take a picture of him wearing a pair for the blog.  It's been about a week since he's had any accidents! (He's still wearing a diaper for nap and bedtime....although at nap he's usually completely dry.)

For weeks the boys were looking forward to going to a local "Touch-A-Truck".  The combination of the trucks with the yard sale made for a wonderful outing for the whole family.  Not only did the boys check out all of the various vehicles, they also shopped the sale.  They loved the vendor that had a big box of cars for $.25 each.  Levi managed to find a Percy Train in the bunch.  At another vendor Jude asked if we could buy a Playdough set.  We said that we needed to know how much it cost.  He found the vendor and asked, "How much for the set?"  When the girl told him it was a buck, his response was, "Mom that's a really good price, can we get it?"  Grammy has been teaching him his Dutch roots with all of their shopping at thrift stores.  Now it's beginning to pay off at yard sales!




 After the boys were finished searching for bargains at the yard sale we headed to Emery Farm.  The boys were so excited to be back at one of their favorite spots.  They just love collecting grass for the donkeys, goats, chickens, and bunny!

 At one point Jude got a little freaked out by all of the noises that the donkeys were making.  They start hee-hawing when they aren't being fed enough (much like a begging dog).

 Levi found all of his favorite ride-on toys!

 Sunday morning Jude had a blast helping Daddy get AJ ready for church.  They had a fabulous time playing on the bed in her room.....
 He was trying to teach her how to hide under the blankets....



Like father like daughter... they both look like they could use a stylist.  (The shadows are playing tricks with their fluffy hair.)
