Blowing Bubbles

We have a kind neighbor that gave the boys their very own bubbles. They had fun trying to get the bubbles to work, but half of the fun was just dipping their wand in the bubble solution.

Obachan gave the boys these fun traditional Japanese play clothes. When they wear them they say, "I handsome". I must agree...don't you?

Swinging

While we were at the park we tested out the swings. Isaiah thought it was ok....
Micah was not in the mood.
But of course Josiah loved it!


Did you know tire swings work perfect for triplets?


Overnighter

The boys enjoyed climbing through these big tires; something new to explore.
We went to a "petting zoo", but the boys enjoyed the pretend animals more than the real ones.
The boys were so excited to be at a new place with their mommy and daddy. When we first got to the hotel room they thought it was just fun to sit on all the furniture.


We took the boys on a carriage ride. They talked and talked about the draft horse that pulled the wagon.

By the end of the day ALL the boys were tuckered out.

I believe our first overnighter trip with all three boys, other than at Grammy and Grandpa's house was a success. We played and ate and played some more. I think we tired them out well enough that they didn't care if they had their own beds or not. It is so much fun investigating the world through the eyes of two year olds.

Hi Grammy and Grandpa

Just a special message for our very loved Grammy and Grandpa. :)

Insightful Expressions




The boys are talking more and more. Kenta and I often giggle at their creative expressions. This last weekend we were going on a family walk on a beautiful and gusty day. The leaves were blowing, the sun was shining and we were all five walking hand in hand. Isaiah, watching the leaves blow in the wind said, "The leaves are running." Now isn't that creatively cute.

Picnicing

This spring, we have been enjoying the fun of picnicking! The boys get so excited to eat outside on a blanket. It is such wonderful family time enjoying the beautiful creation around us. On this picnic, we gave the boys juice boxes for the first time. That was a definite hit! They were sure to get every last drop. After dinner, they explored around the park to see what they could find, buttercups, snake grass, and the favorite.....sticks!

Camping Out

Kenta and I talk about taking the boys camping. It was something that I didn't do growing up and thought I would enjoy doing with my family. Although we have not introduced that adventure to the boys yet, we found this great pop up tent at IKEA so we can have "camp outs" inside. :) Someday we will go camping and it will be fun...but for now...this is just right!
