T I M E

I sure love being with my family. Whether it's just the hubby and kiddos or the grandparents. Love it all. Grandma and Grandpa Walker came to town for  a short sweet visit. It was just perfect. Our kids get SO excited, they forget to sleep and then we have huge issues down the road. SO short visits ARE perfect.
 
Backyard Popsicles
 
 The swing performed a miracle that I could not that day.
 
Craft with Grandma. It's a placque that says, "Brycen. Born May 9, 2009. A Child of God". They (Cian has one as well) turned out SO good.
 
It may take visitors in town but when Daddy tags along, we sure love it.
 
We took the Grandparents on our annual trip to the cornmaze. All day Brycen said that he was going to the cornmaze to see the cow and I tried to break it to him that there wouldn't be any. As soon as he got out of the van, he ran to it and said, "There it is! See, Mom! A cow!" I am really puzzled as to how he could've known/remembered when it had been a full year and I sure didn't.
 
 Hayride.
 
 Since the Grandparents were leaving Saturday morning, we went to the corn maze Friday night and the darkness added quite the adventure. Got lost even more than usual, especially when Grandma was the head of the pack. :)
 
 
 Cian's first time. It's a bit blurry but had to have it, it's our traditional picture.
 
 
After the grandparents left, we went on a family bike ride. It was Cian's first time in the trailor and he quickly grew to become not a fan. He was either just exhausted and/or was frustrated that he was forced to be leaning into Brycen the whole time. Kinda like when you are sharing an air mattress that has a hole, with a person that weighs more than you. Despite all efforts, the smaller person ends up crashed into the bigger person the whole time. I'm not a fan as well.
 
 
He cried a good deal before falling asleep. Brycen was so cute to let him sleep on him until we got home.

He is normally like this:



 Big Brother started Joy School last week. He LOVES it. We made the mistake of telling him the night before and he couldn't sleep. He goes twice a week with two other boys his age. The moms trade off teaching. My turn is in 5 weeks. I am loving those 2 hours each day Brycen goes, that  I have with just Cian. Errands with ONE child all the sudden seems like piece of cake!
