Father's Day, Swimming, and Other Pics

Father's Day picture. He got to rest a little more than usual today, although he still gave up some of his sleep in time to take the kids out on a walk in the morning. It's like he can't help himself. Westin and Jade know that when Dad is around, they are going to have fun.

About to go to church. Westin does great when he finally gets into his nursery class. He likes the toys and song time. I'll frequently hear him singing through out the day. Most of the time he sings along to our bed time songs in his bed. He is definately our little singer.

I have been taking Jade into nursery lately, too. The toys keep her happy. Today she brought me a toy cow and said, "Cow. Moo." It was cute.


Trick Riders


This is Westin being a crocodile at the pool. He is a very loud crocodile and not at all shy. He will be a crocodile to ANYONE within a few feet. Recently he likes to walk up to random people at the pool, or the library, and sit next to them and talk their ears off. We have begun having the talk about, "not talking to strangers," with him. The other day when we left the pool, he wanted to say goodbye to everyone as we left. He treated each one as though they were a good friend or relative. It's a little sad that we don't want him to get in that habit, for safety's sake.


I love Westin's hair. It has a mind of it's own, just like him.


You may think that Jade has an injured eye. Not so, she just attempted to apply eye liner. I'd like to seee what she could do if she was looking in a mirror while applying.



Darth Vader or an Ewok or something (Wes is gone, so I can't ask him what Star Wars character this is, but he knows)...on the toilet!

This onesie describes Jade well, or at least what she prefers. Let's just say she is not afraid to let her wants be known. Aunt Andrea hooked Jade up with this onesie and the toy cake. Westin and Jade, and any kid that comes to our house likes to blow out the candles on this cake.

Jade and Westin both love the clubhouse pool, so we'll be there a lot this summer.

Jade likes to play outside just as much as Westin, which is nice that I can take a minute here and there to just sit and watch.


Doesn't this picture make you hungry for a snack...perhaps the one on her chin?
I rarely can get Westin to look at the camera, so here is one of the few.


I let Westin take some pictures all by himself. He chose to take several pictures of his cars. Here is one. It's really no surprise.
