Kite Flying

We were just waiting for a windy day like this. Logan saw this kite at Walgreens for 1.99 and got it for a day of fun with Afton.... I know, big spenders. She had a lot of fun and so did we. Typically I don't think flying kites is that exciting but when you see the excitement in a little kid who is flying a kite "all by myself" for the first time, the excitement is pretty contagious.











It turned out to be great practice for a friends kite flying birthday party the following week. She was a pro by then.

Bits of March

We've been trying to keep ourselves busy. Second semester has been a beast! Poor Logan is studying and in the lab all the time. We hardly see the guy! I've been trying to find projects and activities to mix up our routine a bit. She gets bored of me a lot. I'm not as fun or as exciting as her dada that she misses a lot.

Afton painting while sporting the kid classic punch mustache.

We've gotten to babysit Aftons friend Carson a couple of times. She looks forward to these days!

Sad day for Logan. I heard a crash and ran back to his study room to find him and Afton with a broken chair. I took just one lean with Afton on his lap and one of the legs snapped right off. He's been demoted to a wooden kitchen chair to study in... no leaning in that chair.



Afton got to ride on another carousel and she insisted that she ride the Zebra. Kids are so funny. Just some of the things we've been up to this March. It's starting to get really hot. Oh here we go again!

Things have gotten a little hairy around here

I think it's time for another haircut. I'm not sure I want to continue brushing this out 3 times a day!

Bump

Showing off our baby bumps. Afton's convinced that she has a baby in her belly too. 19 weeks.

20 Weeks





We make quite the Sunday lounging team.

Park 3/5/11

Lately Logan has been needing to go to school every Saturday to study. We look forward to Saturday afternoons when he comes home and we can go do something. This time we went to the park down the street from our house. Have I mentioned before how bad/poorly planned the roads are here! jk.... I know I have. We decided to drive there since it was later, problem is we've always taken the trail to get there and had the hardest time figuring out how to get there in our car! Even with google maps and GPS we kept running into: freeways, one way streets, roads with big medians that we couldn't cross. We even stopped and asked directions. At one point I wanted to give up and just go home to a park in our complex. But Logan persisted and 40 mins later we made it to the park that is only about 5 mins away. Atleast we know how to drive there from now on.









Traveling Puerto Rico Style

Traffic is awful here 90% of the time. That might be a little bit of an over exaggeration but really it is bad a lot of the time!

School work

I love periodically finding teeth in bottles of bleach all over my house.



Studying for practicals.
