Father's Day was a Success

Well, Father's Day was a success! It was complete with family time, great gifts and even more awesome food.

I think every man's dream is to wake up to legos in the morning. :) Okay, maybe not every man's, but definitely mine. Do you like my creations?
I made this car. Haha.
Cam was very specific about what he wanted for Father's Day. So Specific that he researched and purchased it for himself. I claim the wrapping job.
Oh yes, love at first sight.
Hunny, pose!
Check out my craft blog to see how I decorated.

What We're Up To.

This is us as of late.

Jake is really interested in my camera. As soon as I get it out, he stops whatever cute thing he is doing and runs towards me in hopes that I will let him push some buttons.
We were goofing off this day, hence my scary eyes. Isn't it cute, though?

This is what happens when the camera gets taken away.
We know this face well here at 18 months old.

That's okay. He LOVES our play kitchen.
He is very serious about food prep.

Awww. A puppy intermission.

We've been garage sale-ing.
One of our favorite things to look for are Mega Blocks.
These are our newest additions getting a bath.

Jake thinks they're more fun like this than as building blocks...

See the happiness?

And this is why they say you should watch your kids around water, even if they aren't IN water.
Yeah, He slipped in head first and Cam grabbed him. :) I took pictures.

This week was also Jake's first date. Carrie lives down the street and Cam baby sat. He took this picture of the two lovebirds watching Toy Story and sharing snacks. Awww.

Major cut his paw. Cam and I make a good vet team. It is all healed up now. Can you see the wrap job on his back foot?

Speaking of kitchens... I have been having Jake "help" me in the kitchen.

Tonight he made this very fine tower.

and then when I was done with my very gourmet meal of spaghetti and corn, we had a mommy-son dinner date. He loves sitting up to the table.

and he loves spaghetti.

That's what we're up to!

Family Outings

Since I am working our family time is severely limited, so we have been trying to make the very most of every moment we get together.

(Sorry for all the pictures. I have no idea how to cut back.)

Several weeks ago we went to Jump and Shout (scratch that) whatever-that-place-is-called-now...



A good time was bad by all. :)

Then, just this week, we went to The Children's Museum of Phoenix.
I have been wanting to go for a while...

Jake loved the car wash, but only if we pushed him through.


I think the noodles won as the favorite toy of the day.


but these chimes were right up there.

It was fun! The museum really made me want to have a huge playroom! :)
