Last night was 'Anderson Family Fun Night', haha, we try to get out at least one night a week to do something fun together as a family. We chose to eat at Mojo Burger and go to the park. Excitement all around...
Jackson has become a pro at the slide and he even impressed me when he chose to climb up some big kid contraption to get to the slide as opposed to just using the conventional method which would have been the stairs in this case. Check out his skills...
Just to run off a little steam Jack and his Dad went and ran the bases, we are envisioning our little baseball player in the making.
Jack loved the chicken nuggets, but mostly he just loves ketchup and will dip everything in it. When he doesn't find anything satisfactory to dip into the ketchup, he just picks it up and starts sucking it out of the cup. It's totally gross but so entertaining to watch.
He's also really in to the Little Einstein videos. That's what he watches while he does his breathing treatments everyday. He's so funny because now he is actually starting to interact with the videos and answer questions they ask and do the hand gestures they teach. This is a little clip of his choreography skills...I am just highlighting all sorts of skills!?
On Tuesday of this past week we decided a trip to visit Grandma and Auntie was in order. I drove Jackson and Logan up to Sacramento and we stayed over night so the boys could get in a little cousin time.
Just arrived, the fun times are about to unfurl.
Reacquainting Logan and Leila.
He's just so cute and smiley all the time.
Can't you just tell they're getting into mischief already?
Aunt Nina is so cool, she makes the boys nuggets and let's them eat lunch on the back porch while watching a DVD. Check out Dylan's fancy toy, Jackson definitely doesn't have anything like that at home.
Logan will hang out in Leila's rainforest bouncer forever! He loves checking out the cool toys and jumping around.
They have a pool in their complex that is pretty incredible if I do say so myself. It was yet another venue for Jackson to display his fearlessness. Before we even got the arm floaties on him, he was already running head first into the pool. He loves stairs and wanted to go up and down the steps that led in and out of the water. Once he got the floaties on he started swimming all over the place. He figured out very quickly how to hold his head up and with a little steering help from him mom, he took off. It was pretty cool.
Aunt Nina is attempting to wrangle the wild animals!
Keeping his head up.
My futile attempt at some swimming lessons.
A quick picture before he wiggled out of my arms and took off.
The stairs...here he is running them without arm floaties. I had to supervise very carefully. He only went under twice and I got him out quickly. He didn't seem too phased by it though because he just kept on going.
Aunt Nina can get Logan to smile real big. Check out her sun-kissed glow. She's a total Betty!
We also went for a nice long walk to the park with Grandma. The boys did great holding her hands when we crossed the streets.
Priceless...
Logan loves to be carried in the Baby Bjorn. He just drools and checks out his surroundings. That translates to pure bliss!
Stopping off at the park along the way. Jack loves those slides and Grandma had the patience to help him up onto the equipment at least a half-dozen times.
Lol! After walking just over a mile in semi-warm conditions, the boys ran out of gas. We had to take Leila out of her stroller and push the boys the rest of the way home in it. It was less than 5 minutes, so they did really great. After a quick bath they slept straight through the night!
Gotta love those family visits!
