A nice spring day

We are loving the Spring weather and have been playing outside, a lot! It was a little windy today, but still nice. Here are a few pictures of the boys playing and then....videos of them starting to ride their tricycles!!

Brendan in light blue, Collin in orange.




And the tricycle riding!

Reward for Collin

Collin has been begging us to go to Chuck E Cheese, so we told him if he could use the potty all week we would go as a reward. Well, today was the day. Yes, it was a very long day - Arboretum and Chuck E Cheese! I'm tired!

He had a great time as did Brendan. Although, by looking at the pictures it doesn't look like Brendan was that thrilled about it. I think he was just tired like me! Even though he took a two-hour nap and Collin didn't even take one! I guess Collin was running on adrenaline-he's been looking forward to this day all week!





We told Brendan he can have a similar reward when he starts using the potty - we'll see when that happens!

A beautiful day at the Dallas Arboretum

We took a trip to the Dallas Arboretum today and had such a great time! The weather was perfect and so was the company! The boys had a great time. They did keep asking me where the "animals" were though! I guess they thought it was supposed to be like the zoo! :)

I didn't get as many pictures as I was hoping for, because the subjects were in constant motion. They really didn't care to sit down or stand still for pictures. Imagine that!
Here is a cute one of Collin when we first got there:

This is what happened when I tried to get a picture of them together. Collin in green and Brendan in blue.



I think this picture is so cute! Collin and his girlfriend Presley.

Then Brendan got in on the fun and they were running around chasing each other and having a great time.


Brenny by the tulips.

The pirate ship - they thought this was very cool.


If you can stand the shaky camera, this is a really cute video! If you get motion sickness, you may not want to try it! I really need to work on my video-taking skills.
