Trying to catch up.. or catch my breath?
We have had several doctor visits for Brendan’s routine checkups.

We had a trip to the airport to pick up Gramma and Kayla!!

Trevor shopping with Gramma

The boys taught them how to “make spaceships” aka pile up everything you can find in the middle bed and blast off.

A little stunt show

Doh!!

A trip to Wildlife World Zoo and Aquarium

Petting and feeding the stingrays is the best part according to Kayla and Trevor

Brendan actually held a chunk of sardine and fed it to the stingray!

Feeding the birds would have been more awesome if it wasn’t so crowded. It was still cool!

Petting zoo

The kids were mostly content to stay home and play in “The Lego Nest”

Kayla made some cool stuff!

The boys had to “do some foamwork” in the garage while we tie-dyed some shirts. I didn’t take any pics of the finished shirts!

I had no energy left to set up photo studio stuff. We had a great week with Kayla and Gramma.

The day before they left, another cousin came to take their place. Eric and his fiancée Liz escaped the Illinois cold and snow for a week too. They celebrated Liz’s birthday at the Grand Canyon. Happy birthday, Liz!

Brendan’s creativity can not be contained by a small white board.

We are back full circle to the last blog. Company has come and gone and now the colds are back. It has been mild so far but fevers, coughs and lots of boogers have come by for a visit now.
