Fun(ny) times!

Landon and Trevor at Moody Gardens. It was like pulling teeth to get them both to look at the same time!


Landon has been having such a great summer and it just started! Our evenings consist of playing in the back yard sprinkler and his plastic pool. It also usually consists of him running around naked which is okay with me because it's less laundry :) Sometimes I think he thinks he lives on a nudist colony. The neighborhood swimming pool opens this week so I'm sure we will be spending a lot of time in the water... with our swimsuit on :)

He started climbing out of his crib again this past week. I was hoping we could curb that but it did not work. He has been out of town with grandparents for the last 3 weekends in a row without a crib so he pretty much decided he'd had enough of it. We installed the side rail to his big boy bed and he napped in there for the first time today. After 2 1/2 hours Jeremy had to wake him up! So I guess he liked it. The only challenge for us is getting him to fall asleep in it without us having to stay with him. We took the "sleep lady shuffle" approach to getting him to fall asleep in his crib so we will start that back up and see if we can keep him in it. 

We had a funny experience at dinner tonight. It really shouldn't be funny, but it really just is. He was coloring as we were waiting on our food and Jeremy and I were talking amongst ourselves when all of a sudden daddy said "holy crap!" Need I say more?? We don't really want our son saying "crap" but HOLY!! So needless to say he started saying (actually yelling) "Holy Crap!!" Jeremy and I busted out laughing once and that's all it took. He proudly professed holy crap for the next 10 minutes! Way to go Dad :)  Once we ignored it he stopped and then we quickly changed it to "holy cow!" He picked up on that one so we seem to have bypassed the phrase.... Hopefully.
