Vermont Pics Part 2

I got picture from Robin, my sister in law, awhile ago but am just getting around to posting them. She got some really great shots of the boys playing together.

Here is Jonathan teaching Jack some silly faces.
We got the boys to sit still for one picture. We took several others but this ones is it for seeing all their faces.
Gus and Jacob loved to play together.
Jacob is 2 months younger but basically the same size as Gus. The good thing is that Gus is cruising and Jacob is not.
I love this one of my brother and Jack.
Adam went out sledding with everyone. I used Jacob as an excuse to stay inside and warm.
Grandpa and Alex...love it.


We may have been there for only 30 hours but we fit in a lot of fun. We didn't realize that the hotel we were staying at had an indoor pool so the boys went in their underwear. I don't think it bothered them at all.



In the evening Alex sat the boys down and read them a book. It was beyond cute. He was so good at reading the page and then showing the pictures.
Jonathan and Jack were also very attentive and liked being read to.

Afternoon at the Pool

We spend several afternoons a week at the pool in our complex. The boys love it and considering how tired they get so do I.




OUTSIDE!

This winter has been so rough on us. We are active people with very active boys. The massive amounts of snow fall and other bad weather has kept us stuck inside. I know we probably could have wrapped up some and gotten out more but quite frankely we are all California babies and just don't like it out there. But this weekend it hit the 50's. So we hit the park.

I just got a backpack for Jacob so that I can take the boys hiking this summer and I finally got to test it out. The kid is big so my shoulders were pretty sore. After a few hikes I am hoping to get used to it.

Lots of smiles from the boys. They had to run around in their boots since it was lots of mud and melting snow and slush.

We managed to climb into the park area and play awhile. We were sad to see that people just let their dogs poop everywhere all winter and we were stepping over it the whole walk. It was quite disgusting. Hello people...pick up the poop. When I let my kids poop at the park I pick it up.

Adam took a turn with Jacob. I think Jacob really likes being so high up and able to see everything. I just need to get a clip for his hat so that when it falls we don't lose it.

We are really looking forward to getting out and doing some outside activities. Hopefully this weather holds up and we get an early spring.
