Trip to PA

We took a trip to PA last weekend to visit with Dan's Nana, Uncle Bill and Aunt Eileen.

We stopped at IKEA on the way home to get the boys out of the car for a while. It was an interesting experience to say the least. Carter loved the peek-a-boo chair. Unfortunately, they were $80 a piece!

Squishy getting adjusted by the other Dr. Mudryk, Dan's uncle.

The boys had an absolute blast riding around in Nana's portable chair. It was a hoot!

Uncle Bill broke out the lawn mower.

Aunt Eileen and Carter

Dan, Carter and Uncle Bill went to a HUGE train museum. Carter was in Heaven!

Our "cool dudes" chilling in I-95 traffic. Ahhhh, I-95, isn't it just the best!?

He is Just So Cute!

Carter says the cutest things sometimes. A few things are coming to mind and I didn't want to forget to make a note of them.

• Every once in a while, Carter will get a surprised look on his face and say, "Oh! My ear just turned on". He says this when his ear must be ringing. :)

• Tonight when I tucked him into bed, he told me that his elbow was broken and that he needed to see Dr. Horowitz...on a Sunday...during the Summer. Geesh! Anything to get a lollipop.

• The other day Carter panicked and said that he had something in his eye. After rubbing it for a while and fluttering his eyelashes he calmly said, "Oh, never mind. It's just an eyeball". LOL

"Oh, wait...my mistake. It's go ON the potty, not IN the potty. DOH!"

After the eggciting Easter egg hunt at Grammie's and Jaja's house Camden needed a break. We had a delicious ham dinner to round out our Easter festivities.

The Easter Bunny came!!! Oh, and how awfully tacky of him to leave the price tag on the Wall*E gift. Gees.

The Easter Bunny hid Carter's basket in a very high place. When we told Carter to look for it, he walked RIGHT to it and found it even though it was almost impossible for him to see. We couldn't believe it! I am so sorry we didn't get that on video. Either he is psychic, or the Easter Bunny talked to him in his dreams.

Dying the Easter eggs.

Hanging with our bestest friends, Auntie Fefes (Felicia), Savannah and Caroline.

I am so glad we have this swing set!

Randomness

Grammie came over for a birthday dinner and Camden helped her put on her slippers.

Carter built a train, complete with a smoke stack and tender.

The newest Craigslist find for the boys. They LOVE it! I am so excited about this. AND you can tell how bad our pollen is right now...check out all of those yellow spots!!! "Ahh-Choo!!!"

Nanna cuddling with the boys.

Camden, yes Camden, LOVES to go on the big boy potty. He started telling me the other day that he had to "poop" and he was trying to pull down his pants and knocking on the bathroom doorknob. I can't believe that our 15 month old might be potty trained before our 3 year old.

Daddy's home!!!

The boys "reading" the uses for Desitin. Great stuff.

"Cheese"

Wait, where'd you go? I can't see you...wait, let me get Grammie's glasses.

"Ahhhhhhh, that's better."

"Watch this!"

"Hey Doo!"

Squishy's Vocabulary

Camden's vocabulary seems to grow by the day. He is parroting everything that he hears so he has come up with some pretty funny ways to say things. Here is a current list of some new words since the last list:

Car-Car (Cah-Cah)
Plane
sun
moon
Ouch
hot
Birdie (a.k.a "tweet")
doggie (a.k.a "whoo-whoo")
ball
bubbles
apple
mine! (used WAY too much- this is what he says when he wants something)
baby
elephant
kitty
horsey
fishy (one of his favorite words!)
flower
car
truck
tractor
paci (that ones an old one though)
poo-poo
lovey-dovey
and last but not least:
uh-oh spaghetti o's! (uh-oh blah-tha-blah-tha) *see video clip*
I can't think of anymore right now.

This is Odwalla's Superfood juice. We call it "monster juice" so that the boys will think it is fun to drink. Look at the ingredients below, it's pretty gross! And, it is the worst green you could possibly imagine, kind of like chewed up grass. Oh, and it smells like blue-green algae. YUM! :)

Papa and Nana came for a visit the other weekend with their new doggie Lilly.

Camden loves to brush his teeth with Carter. It is SO much easier to teach him new things when he has Carter to copy. Monkey-see, Monkey-do is a common motto in our household.

Camden loves his grapes!

Chairs!

This is what the boys like doing now that we have a nice smooth, shiny floor. It's more like an ice rink!

Carter

Carter has been saying some pretty funny things lately. Two conversations that are fresh in my mind are below:

(While driving around running errands)

Me: Carter, do you want to move to New Zealand?
Carter: I want ice cream.

(Dan and I couldn't decide on dinner, so after debating back and forth, we decided to leave it up to Carter.)

Me: Carter, it's up to you buddy. Do you want Mexican or Chinese?
Carter: Neither.

The boys playing with our "new" hand-me-down play gym.

Playing Elefun- catching butterflies

Squishy was bored and had to find ways to entertain himself while his big brother was busy taking a gymnastics class.

Carter went to the Little Gym for an hour long class of energy exertion. He LOVED it!

Camden loves to rock. He walks around saying, "rock-rock, rock-rock..." while climbing in and out of his rocking chair and his rocking dino.

Mwah!

The boys will make a "fort" out of anything.

Hmmmm..............

Camden LOVES to eat with utensils. He is SUCH a big boy now.
