snoozer, twice in one day!

Ian wandered into my closet with a blanket and fell asleep. i didn't hear him for a few minutes and that's when i went looking for him. it took me a little bit to find him; i never thought to look in a closet. this was actually way before his regular naptime too.

then he past out again during dinner after only taking a couple'a bites.

Liz's birthday

Joel and i went out to a local Japanese Steakhouse where the chef cooks right in front of you; he cooks your entire meal there, other than your salad.
he also got a New York style cheesecake from Fresh Market for use to enjoy with my parents after we got home from our date. boy, was it yum!

Grampa and Ian

tapioca and new 'do

star on face

we shopped at Old Navy and they had face painting, so Zeke got a star. he was so happy about it and kept asking to see it. he was a little upset when we had to take it off at bedtime, but he understood we had to when i said it would stain his pillowcase if we left it on.

my parents were up visiting us during the bases 4th of July celebration, which happened to be on July 2nd.

Zeke in a cop car


oh, dear, now he's going to drive!




covering his ears b/c of the loud fake artillery fire.

Ian was quite upset by the noise.

in a hummer



Ian hated the sound the fake guns made. they sounded so real and loud!


still HATING the sound. i started to wonder how bad the fireworks were going to be if he hated this sound...


our first ride at the carnival. it was a swinging spinning bucket of sorts.





Zeke and Ian got to go on this ride without me. it just seemed to relax them.
