Random end of April and May photos

A whole bunch of photos in no particular order lumped together that fill out what we did toward the end of April and in May.

TJ continues to do just awesome on his big boy bike. He zips in circles on our road and in the neighbors' driveways, but also will happily ride the tricycle, much to Jojo's chagrin. Jojo has taken over the strider and caught on much more quickly than we expected. I need to get video of that to post. 

TJ's preschool field trip to the Kalamazoo Nature Center. They learned about growing food, petted some animals, and took a wagon ride. All the kids had a great time!

The lawnmower is a popular toy--and always more appealing if your brother is using it!

Josiah figured out that he gets more momentum on our driveway if he lifts his feet up. Yep, fantastic. And now he's trying the same thing on the strider bike. Our neighbors have (kindly) suggested we get a rubber fence for the end of the driveway to contain the boys. Happily, our dead-end road is pretty quiet, but even so, we have to station an adult at the end of the driveway every time we're outside! ('Cause they don't always (ever?) respond to the word "STOP!")

The boys were very proud of this long train track they made. 

Mother's Day

Last day of preschool party in the park. Thomas with his two teachers, plus Jojo wanted in on the fun.


Playing with the wheelbarrow. We have a number of holes in the dirt parts of our yard, and this wheelbarrows has toted dirt from hole to hole.


We are grateful that neither boy fights wearing a helmet, especially with some of the daredevil stunts they pull.

If you have rubber boots, you'd better run around wearing nothing but the boots and your boxer briefs/diaper!

We have a similar photo of TJ (see below).


Self-serve water!
