"Side"

Barrett loves playing outside, or "side" as he calls it.  Last Friday, we spent all morning playing outside with Pops. Lala, Jill, and Rocket.



He even walked Rocket.  Well... he held the leash while Rocket went wherever he wanted to, but STILL, Bear did a great job and had so much fun!

Another Pajama Post

I don't know why I'm obsessed with pajamas for Bear, but I am.
He is so tall that he's already grown out of most of his 18-24 month pjs.  I had to get a picture of a few of my favorites since he really can't wear them much longer.
These ones are especially cute because one of the dogs is called Buster! (we call Barrett "Buster" sometimes if you didn't know that)

I'm a sucker for shortie pajamas too.

I love these jammies, but I would have thought Gymboree would spend a moment of their time using spellcheck before they print clothes.  Alligator should have 2 l's if you didn't know.

Luckily he still has these cute bear jammies from Canada- they should last him a few more months!

Pioneer Day

We never really do anything to celebrate Pioneer Day in our family.  This year, we watched some of the parade on tv. 

And had a barbecue with some of our family at night. Tink sharing her popsicle with Bear.
We were all very entertained by Barrett that night- he was being so hilarious!  He was dancing and making the cutest and funniest faces in the iPad.

And when Tinkerbell was doing back walkovers and headstands and all of her cool tricks, he was trying to do them too.
Honestly, it was probably the funnest Pioneer Day I've ever had!

This was a couple nights ago, but I thought it was super cute that Bear was helping Pops shuck the corn.  He really was helping too!

Sprinklers

Last week, the sprinkler guys were at my parents house doing some work so Barrett, Tinkerbell, and Reags decided to get outside and play wherever the guys were working. 



There were a few times when Bear got sprayed and wasn't expecting it.  Lucky for him, he has such a sweet cousin to carry him back to me.


Since the kids were already wet, we filled up the kiddie pool for them.  They had the funnest afternoon!
Bear and Tink putting their faces in the water.


This is Barrett talking on the phone to Neil.  He'll actually talk to people on the phone lately; it's the cutest.


Today I met up with Nicole and Elias to go to the new Layton splash pad.  We got there and felt like it was geared for older kids, so we went back to my parent's house and filled up the kiddie pool.  



Most of the time, they played really cute together.

Spaghetti Factory

We got to go out to dinner with these silly kids over the weekend.


Actually, there was a whole bunch of Neil's family (and a few other people I didn't meet at the other end). 
Too bad Bear couldn't come play with his cousins.  Another time though!

GiGi's

We've gone swimming at my grandma's a time or two this summer since it's been so HOT.  Hopefully we'll get over there a few more times before summer's over.

Treehouse Museum

We finally got together with Kacey, Zeek, Eli, and Nicole this week.  We went up to the Treehouse Museum in Ogden again.  The boys all had a great time, but it was not easy trying to keep them together and interested in the same things.
Barrett loved all the animals they had.

Zeek and Bear in the music room.  A lot of the pictures are blurry because these boys don't stay still for very long!

Eli and Barrett.

I think this was the end of a hug- or maybe Bear was just grabbing him, that happened a few times too.

I did get this cute hug though between Bear and Eli.  Heart melted.

The boys watching the fish.

Our usual attempt at a group shot.  I just love these guys~!
Kace is 32 weeks pregnant, by the way.  How cute is she?!

Miscellaneous Pictures

Bear has loved being reunited with his cousins!



Bear, Grandma, and Ava.

He will play with squirt bottles for hours!

He's really enjoyed having 2 sippy cups at once.  We just got off the bottle last week and it hasn't been going that well, but we're getting a little more used to it.

I got to go out to dinner with these great friends for Lonnie's birthday.  He's the one in the back who is mostly hidden!
 Michele, Diane, Ashley, me.

Barrett loved doing spider with Liv.  I wish I could've gotten clearer pictures!


These girls put on a puppet show for me and Bear.  Very creative!
