This morning, it is Brendan bath antics that got pictures. He gets very excited when he sees his bath tub and he makes it a personal challenge to beat his water-out-of-the-tub record each day.

Flying up high in the sky baby

Trevor and Gramma and I got in the van for some errands. She says being outside highlights Trevor’s blue eyes.

The only thing that makes it worth going to Costco in the middle of a super busy Saturday is samples. “Samples?!” says Trevor, “What’s samples?!”

Nom nom nom. Trevor tried all kinds of different things. He was in love.

His absolute favorite was the meatballs with bbq sauce. But he had some cheddar cheese, crescent rolls, hot dogs in blankets, chocolate eclairs, pound cake, and meatballs, among other things.

Then he picked his teeth with my purse strings

We got home and let Brendan see the new bath toys that Trevor convinced Gramma to buy

Brendan says he has just been busy chomping on his glow toe.

He likes the new toys, I am sure they will help him set a new record tomorrow.

Trevor got some new winter jammies with Christmas themes. He is just showing off how well these coordinate/camouflage with his bedroom!

I have my days all confused and I swear I thought this was Sunday.

This felt like Saturday all day long because it was a little bit more relaxed than a typical Friday. It is really a big difference to have an extra adult in the house!
We are pushing Brendan at the end of his drug weaning and you can totally see it on his face. He was tired all day and refused to nap, he HAD to know everything going on in the house and just would not relax if he thought someone else was in the room. He did an ok job with speech therapy today, even though it cut short the one good nap that he was going to have.
Trevor had a great day and just thought he was something special getting extra attention. He took two great naps today too.
Gramma took tons of pictures, it is hard to pick out the ones to use!

There are always bathtime antics in the morning.

Brendan had big ups and downs. One minute he would be all laughs and silly and sounding good and the next he would be retching, coughing, and looking like he would pass out. He loved scritching and pounding on his balloon from his birthday last month. This balloon is still floating up to the ceiling!

There was a little competition for attention this morning.

The boys both are learning how to give high fives!

Trevor begs Gramma to be let out of baby jail

Not only has Trevor figured out that he can get on to the couch by himself, he also likes to get in and out of his toybox.

Trevor runs with the chomp and clack

Brendan loves when Trevor is coming right for him with it!

Brendan likes to play with it too.

Trevor has this elaborate dance with the corn popper, it was like some kind of choreographed popper-twirling routine

We are all worn out from all the excitement today. Hopefully Brendan feels better tomorrow.

She made it safely! Trevor and I picked her up from the airport.

They accidentally both wore blue/gray plaid, although Trevor talks on the phone a lot so they might have coordinated. Trevor obviously remembers her!

And then the tickling started!

Trevor tells her his stories about what goes on around here when she is away. Where is Brendan to shake his head and laugh?

Brendan was happy to see Gramma too!

Trevor thought Brendan’s turn saying hi was too long

He was just going to climb his way up.

We got home through rush hour traffic just in time to get Trevor fed. He ate a big dinner of teriyaki chicken, broccoli, and raspberries with a side of cheerios. 25 minutes later, he proceeded to help himself to half of Gramma’s dinner too. He kept standing up and stealing her cheese sandwich.

The boys had a full day already and were pretty tired tonight. It will be fun when they wake up and have someone to play with tomorrow.
