First Bath Together (HA!)

Walker was happy to see Aden in the tub with him
Aden watched Walker's every move

Walker wanted to try the seat also, to bad it doesn't fit.
This was at the lake house that we first tried bathing them together and I learned not to put to much water or the bumbo chair will tip over. We don't do it every night because I don't feel like Aden's bottom gets as clean as it should but this is great if we are in a hurry or if Aden wants to have a little fun with bath time. Walker enjoys pouring water on Aden to rinse off the soap. He has done very good taking on the big brother job by helping us with little stuff. It's funny because I will say "Walker where is Aden's pacifier?" and he will search until he finds it. Some days that is a huge help.

Walker's 2nd Birthday Party












Walker had his 2nd birthday party on the 17th of May and he had a blast. It was funny putting together a party with the theme of something I know he loves - Trains. It was great b/c his buddy Ty loves train too so they both had a good time. Because Walker has so many Grandparents and Great Grandparents we just had family and of course Ty and his mommy Jenn. Walker has 3 cousins and with Ty there it was plenty of kids for us to handle. I learned this year not to worry about the adults eating just feed the kids, do the cake, open the presents real quick and the rest is a breeze. I didn't eat lunch or have cake until the presents were all done with and it worked out great.

HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY WALKER !!!!!!

Birthday morning
We took Walker to Toys-R-Us on his birthday so he could pick out his present. They gave him a crown, balloon, and announced his birthday over the intercom. Like a crazy mama I got teary eyed and had to walk away when they started announcing how old my baby boy Walker was.
See what Walker picked out. The giant dinosaur that we call Dino. Walker got to have some watered down coke from daddy.
Dino was thirsty too!!!!


Walker loves me to put Aden in his bed when Walker wakes up from his nap. On this day I let then lay with each other for about 10 minutes and when I went to pick Aden up Walker put his hands on Aden and said MINE.(Walker's favorite new word) I had to talk him into letting me have Aden back. It was easy b/c he gave him up for juice. I will have to say it has been a breeze with Walker getting along with Aden. So far I haven't seen much jealousy and Walker tries to help when Aden starts crying. The other day when I was in the shower Josh said that Aden started fussing a little and Walker ran and got an old bottle and tried to give it to Aden. He is such a sweet older brother!!!

I could not get him to stay seated that's why he looks shorter this month b/c I had to scoot him down so he wouldn't fall forward.

Aden's Christening

Robert and Aden
Aden was so much better then Walker was at his christening which surprised me. Aden started to fuss a little but Robert can get any baby to smile.

Josh hates it but I love matching them sometimes when I know we are going or doing something special. Sometimes I don't mean to but the whole family matches.

The Park

They finally put in a playground at our park!! I saw that it was open and had Josh go there so Walker could play out some energy. There is a small section for Walker's age kids and then a large section for the bigger kids, of course we could not keep Walker off the big kid part. He loved every minute and HATED to leave. I am glad that we have a playground to go to but I still don't feel comfortable enough to go by myself.
