Catching up

I've been away from home for a week and a half now, and Mom doesn't have a card reader on her computer, so pictures are hard to download. That's my excuse for not having posted recently. We drove to Augusta to stay with my parents. We've visited my sister in Columbia a couple of times and we went up to Fayetteville to see some old friends. I'm a little road-weary now and glad to be staying in one place for more than 2 days. More pictures and fun stories to come.


Before we left, we celebrated Caleb's 2nd birthday with one of his friends in Ft. Campbell, Ellie.
Neither Caleb nor Ellie was very good at this game, but they both wanted the mallet. I think Caleb is getting sick of hearing, "Sharing is fun!"

On Caleb's actual birthday, it was raining in Augusta and we went to Monkey Joe's - an indoor playground with inflatables. He loved jump- jumping, and he chased the guy dressed up like a monkey around until he got a high-five from the ape.

I wouldn't call my mom prissy by any means, but having all grandsons is kind of funny. The woman just wants to buy a pretty little dress, for goodness sake. After four daughters, learning to spend time with boys means a lot more ball-playing and a lot less mall time. And these boys are still babes, wait till they are big enough to protest all that shopping. That's what Grandpas are for, right? But she looks like she's having fun with Joshua, Caleb, Knox, and Ashton.
